Very nice, Larry. However, your approach to dismissing
the findings which you understandably don't like is
thoroughly unscientific. IN fact, it is ANTI-science,
par excellence.

A REAL scientist would have pointed out inconsistencies
in Leonard's account. A real scientist, Larry -
something you could never be - would keep his own
emotions out of it. You can't.


Even though some parts are indeed loaded with emotion aswell as gloss
(I've never seen Larry write differently) Larry does makes some points
and shows inconsistencies in the article.


Such as?

A real scientist would keep emotions out of it, yet when do we see
this happen in real life?


All the time where any real academic discussion takes place.. Why
did you ask such a stupid question?




When the journal Nature called for the
burning of Sheldrake's book?


Do you think one example supports the claim implied by your first
question?



Larry's present style suits him and the spirit he writes in well. It
would of course never do in formal scientific discussion.



Then lying Larry should stop pretending to have any scientific
background and admit he is an intellectual and scientific zero and a
total fraud as well as a gender-confused buffoon.
