Welcome Curious. As a long time participant here I can understand your first reactions to being scrutinised. It's inevitable that some here will choose words suggesting less , err, kindness, than others. This shouldn't worry you, as you come from Texas, right?.
There are posters here who will do their darndest to flesh out the fine details of what you do and , more importantly, why. That's not a bad thing. I promise, all of those folks have had the veritable tarnish flayed from their coppery skins on numerous occasions and lived to post again. Me included.
Science needs to be a little tough, those of us who admire the work of leaders in our therapeutic field and may wish to make a contribution themselves will know that the mill grinds out lots of players, but not so many stayers. The longer you stay, the more likely you will either, influence others, or be influenced, or both.
If you are looking to have your views routinely accepted and not criticised then you are in the wrong forum, as welcome though you certainly are. Your own critical scientific mindfullness may well get stirred and stimulated however if you stay and participate.
Cheers
