I don't know what to tell you, Linkadge. I can see right through most of the arguments presented in this article. I find them specious. I am familiar with them, and am also familiar with the material that has proven them wrong, one of which I have cited here. I don't know what set these authors off, but they have a conclusion to find evidence for. You know, when it comes down to it, I guess we can both find things in print that are going to support our arguments. But I bet my stuff will stand the test of time.
