I think not. I think that people who care what happened at the KT are
perplexed by the possible mechanism that could strike simultaneously
at groups as diverse as, say, ammonites and dinosaurs.
Though I admire your tenacity and your hope, I think it unwise to
assign such bias to so many well-meaning folk with access to such
diverse sources of information.
Rather than bias, again, grant us our perplexity. We aren't "against"
anything; we just need more of an architecture within which to house
this currently extremely fragile theory.
But thanks for keeping it up. Thanks for trying.
