For the love of God, the man's name is Victor Stenger with an 'e', not Victor Stinger, you uncultured oaf.



Still pissed at me hey? Thanks for correcting my spelling, I will take note of that. But see here is the thing, when you pick on me, like you did here, I don't run and hide.

I also transpose their with there a lot. That makes me human, not perfect, never claimed to be.

If you put your feet on an ottoman fine, it is still a stool, and I don't think humans should be executed for spilling coffee on their/there stool.

So ok Stenger, got it, thanksssssss for corrrecting me spllling.

My misspelling his name doesn't change his objections to Sam's claims and even if one sides with Sam on this issue, peer review and criticism of others in the scientific community is a good ethic, and that is why I am advising others to take STENGER into account by reading his book.

"uncultured oaf" that is funny, like when my mother names her nutcracker "Olaf" makes her "cultured". I love my mom, but paying for an over priced piece of wood and giving it a "fancy" sounding name is as silly as calling fish eggs "caviar".

All you have demonstrated here is your ability to stare at my fingertip while I point at the moon.
