Attacks by Queensland Opposition Leader Steven Miles against Premier David Crisafulli over fluoride this week are more than hard to swallow after another local government's decision to stop adding the mineral to its water supply, writes Janelle Miles.

    I nominate the unregistered charity of @[email protected] who makes efforts to promote health education and foster civil discussion in online spaces.

    Tenderizer may have a different view, but for me personally don’t worry about losing the money due to a random internet discussion. If you would like to use your money to do some good in the world, I don’t want that to be conditional on who spent more time researching a random topic.

    I would, however, like to re-iterate this quote:

    The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance—it is the illusion of knowledge.

    And remind everyone that at any given time we know approximately nothing about anything so be cautious about being overconfident in what you think you know!

      Filling the Gap was born from a simple but powerful idea shared between friends over coffee: to help address the critical shortage of dental care. What started as a grassroots initiative quickly grew into a meaningful movement.
