I'll tell you what, Dee. You show me where such statistical data is
collected and I'll cite it for you. Until then, it is clear that my
comments
were nothing more than opinions. Of course, you knew that before
responding.

You made a statement that most people had such exposure and while I
naturally knew that was only your opinion, you stated it as if it were a
fact. Therefore I was justified in asking you to provide the data to
support that statement.

That doesn't change my response. Again, show me where such statistical
data is collected and I'll cite it for you. Of course, you know it isn't
collected, and therefore my comment could not have been based on that, so
your question was clearly disingenuous.

No I was illustrating that your statement was clearly disingenuous. Hiding
an opinion by making a statement that was couched in terms to make it appear
as if it were a fact. Therefore as a debater it is not only my right but my
duty to challenge it and ask you for proof. And you can't provide it.
Instead, you attempt to ask me to prove your statement, which is an invalid
debating technique.
