I'm only speaking for myself- but when I see such dismissive statements as "you 'experts'" I have a tendency, in my mind, to believe that the poser of any attendent "question" 1- will not accept any answer as their preconceptions are entrenched; and 2- believes that anyone with "expertise" in a field is no better informed than the uninformed reader of various and sundry crackpot websites. Thus, all that said, any answer offered will not be accepted and so I leave it to more patient others to offer what will inevitably be rejected anyway.

I know I will be sorry for this - but how do you "experts" rationalize that "Ehyeh" is "I am" and not "I will be"?
