Michael Crichton, is an author of fiction and a non-practicing MD—is he really a proper source for historical quotes? I think not. I would, therefore, argue in favor of removing the last paragraph from this page unless better sourcing for these quotes can be found.--Reginod 10:17, 2 April 2007 (EDT)
- That's the kind of censorship I came here to avoid. Wikipedians made the same argument, but I don't buy it.
- On what grounds do you reject the quote?
- Writing fiction discredits all non-fiction written by an author.
- Bio-chemist (and science fiction author) Isaac Asimov wrote a History of Chemistry which I read as a teen. Bad source, right?
- When an MD stops practicing or never even starts, he forgets everything he learned at university and his degree becomes worthless.
- Writing fiction discredits all non-fiction written by an author.
- In your reply, please refer to the numbered list above. --Ed Poor 10:41, 2 April 2007 (EDT)
