I'm a health, medical, and science writer, and every now and then I have to remind myself that when people say things that strike me as outlandish, it comes from a place of genuine ignorance owing to a great failure on the part of American education and the media. As many researchers and clinicians have told me over the years, situations like that are opportunities for sharing knowledge and providing clarification.
Still, some folks prefer to be obstinate, so I take a deep breath and try to laugh it off. I can't impart 25 years' worth of knowledge in one sitting, and I can't very well blind 'em.
