Sally, I think Amy was just giving her opinion, as everyone else does in this thread. No need to leave, unless you just don't like it here!

I also am a great lover of science and put a lot of stock in scientific research papers. What is very common (and I'm NOT saying you do this) is that someone will take a study and then apply it to other groups and other situations that the original study did not cover. Then it becomes a blanket "truth" people believe instead of just the results of a study of a particular group or situation.

Most studies are looking for statistical differences. Which means the theory will not hold true for every subject, just for the majority. Studies have shown that cigarette smoking increases your chance of getting lung cancer. Some people have taken that to believe that everyone who smokes will get lung cancer. (FALSE) Believing that is just like believing if you smoke 3 packs a day it won't hurt your lungs just because someone knows someone who smoked 3 packs a day and lived to 102.

as far as that, not sure where I went wrong telling someone they are doing wrong??????? I was giving you information nothing more?????

There is much study on CO2 yes, and I posted about the red plugs in a styro bator, which keeping in mind the bators have plenty of other small ventilation holes in them, and the scale that we are incubating in them.  I didnt mean to throw information at u Amy, I should have known u knew it    , but when reading it sounded like you didnt answer and I had information to give trying to be helpful.
I didn't realize you were an expert, now I know and sorry for trying to help you when you dont need or want it.  I also didnt know you had already had found that video link with him explaining to folk about incubation, its a very good video isnt it.
I obviously make you feel challenged when I comment on incubation, its not a secret, it is your thread so I wont post anymore for fear of anyone else feeling challenged, I give up. :idunno  
I personally am a sponge for pertinent information with reasoning behind it, because of all the hearsay I need proof to guide my decisions because I cant afford trial and error, be it time or money.  @ozexpat
  knows this well of me. 

I respect Dr. Keith Bramwell, PhD, he is poultry extension specialist at the University of Arkansas.  He has done a lot to teach about incubation at exhibits and such outside the University should you search him out. 

With that, my apologies and it was nice to meet everyone on the thread. Very kind they are, and extremely funny too. Blessings to all.....

I am sorry if you felt I was attacking you. I was trying to explain how I differ in my attempt to help than you. You help from "study" viewpoint, backed by science and I help from an experience viewpoint in what I find has or have not worked. I am completely aware that you are only posting in attempts to be helpful, we just have a different viewpoint in helping and that is exactly what this thread is about. Those differences. I respect your knowledge considerably and often point newbies to your hatching 101. It is a wealth of info. I do not feel challenged, but I also don't want to loose sight about the thread being about those differences. Don't feel that you have offended me, I apparently only let SC do that, there is plenty of room for many helpers to show different philosophies. As I said, your info is good to note especially for people having problems in those areas, I just don't feel it's for me at this point. Don't let me chase you away.
