Ancestral Health - Russian Literature Paradox. Robb Wolf

I thought this was a good quote from his talk here: 

Robb Wolf - "If we were in a room discussing Russian literature and I made some bold statement regarding the grammatical style of 18th century Russian literature, how many of you would have an opinion on that topic? Maybe one of you who actually studied 18th century Russian literature in college. Nobody else has an opinion on the topic because you haven't actually done anything related to that field. But yet everybody is a damn expert on evolutionary biology and human organs despite the fact that they've never attended a single class on medical anthropology, they've never read any of the literature on the topic and it doesn't matter whether it's an MD. a DC. a PHD. of nutritional sciences these people have not spent any of the time researching the pertinent information but yet they have strong opinions as to what human beings did or didn't eat or how they did or didn't live, and that is shocking to me. And pisses me off."
