[QUOTE="roadrunner2012, post: 1283860, member: 40736"] You should just post a cartoon at this point, you have no credibility whatsoever. Did you bother to read your link?

He has primarily published his articles in blogs and newspapers using a pseudonym, and it is unlikely he has ever published in a peer-reviewed journal on the subject.[/I] I would assume you are referring to the Reddit comment that sent you off the deep end.
