From the very beginning of Larry Forti's
ANTI-scientific rant:

WILLIAM R. LEONARD is a professor of anthropology at
Northwestern University. He was born in Jamestown,
N.Y., and received his Ph.D. in biological
anthropology at the University of Michigan at Ann
Arbor in 1987. The author of more than 80 research
articles on nutrition and energetics among
contemporary and prehistoric populations, Leonard
has studied indigenous agricultural groups in
Ecuador, Bolivia and Peru and traditional herding
populations in central and southern Siberia.


Perhaps Larry Forti will deign to entertain us by
telling us where HE obtained HIS Ph.D. in biological
anthropology (snicker), and how many peer-reviewed
articles in nutrition and energetics HE has had
published (guffaw).

Somehow...I think we'll be waiting a looooooooong time.
