I take back calling you an idiot. It turns out that I have been misinterpreting the meaning of "ignorance" for a long time. According you Wikipedia, it refers to people who "choose to subjectively ignore information." and that "This should not be confused with being unintelligent, as one's level of intelligence and level of education or general awareness are not the same."

So that is you. Choosing to ignore new information makes you ignorant. Although the fact that you are still claiming to "clear up misinformation" kinda skews my opinion of you toward the direction of stupidity (sorry).
I have not "ignored" your information. I find it interesting, however I do not find myself changing my habits on that information alone.

Hence why, I said:

"the AHA is pretty much the authority on heart disease. When they change their recommendations I'll agree with you."

And who knows, maybe one day they'll CHANGE their recommendations.

Seriously dude, chill out already.
