Any English major or lawyer will tell you this guy has nothing to
say:

~~~~~~~~~~~


"base their conclusions on poor analyses of data and
misinterpretations of technical material."

. . .

"A careful examination of the facts . . ."

. . .

" . . . are based on anecdotal information, vague references and
ignorance . . ."

. . .

"And this has been demonstrated over and over again . . ."


~~~~~~~~~


Try those "arguments" in court and see what the opposing counsel
says.


For the full article just google the lines above.

A careful examination of the facts reveals what has been demonstrated
over and over again, namely; anecdotal information, even when based upon
commonly held experiences, all too frequently becomes, upon closer
examination, little more than vagaries, innuendo and facts conjured only
by wish and not evidence which can be held in common for all to see.

Nonetheless, even though this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose,
what matters is meaning of the argument however plodding it's process.
