One does not need to - it is fallacious to do that. So regardless of his model, it can't magically trash the logic, critical thinking and scientific reasoning at will. I never suggested that his model is wrong, nor that this Axelrod guy I never heard before is a no-name, I just think that the synaptic malfunctioning occurs in fact somewhere between your keyboard and your chair.
