Hi, just an explanation for the discussion with the media people.
I think it's useful to cross-post this (1) so that in case the journalists publish wrong or misleading statements, there are at least some colleagues who know what my version of the story was; (2) it's probably useful for everyone since it's a discussion at a very pedagogical level, and should help to make it clear to everyone that I'm not a "believer" in any of the hypotheses I work on.
If there's a lot of this, I would prefer to spin this off into a completely open list, e.g. cosmo-torun-media , so that anyone interested could read it.
