I just typed in “Like the eunuch at the orgy who was always first with the gossip” into google to learn a little more of the context of the quote and a link to your posts on the forum were head of the pack.
I am happy to see you included quotation marks when you used Tallis' words this time. That didn't happen here;

But as I moved down the Google list I kept finding what is a rather obscure quote around other blogs and websites over the last year or so. Then it struck me, given the context and the style these were all from you, unless of course there are a whole bunch of other Australians who have suddenly decided to employ it in similar settings.
So will you confirm or deny you are Donkey Hote posting on Michael Smith's blog?

And are you Bazza from Qld 4218 posting on Andrew Bolt's site?

Be that as it may from my limited reading Tallis' point was about the 'socialisation' of science so your prolific use of his quote in discussions on Climate Change on this site may have some validity. But you now want to stretch it to include this topic?
Lost me.
Tell you what, how about you tell me, in your own words this time, exactly the point you are trying to make because I will admit to being a little confused.
A word of advice. Overuse can wear some things out.
