They may be wrong on many things, but they seem like regular guys."</i><br /><br />It's difficult to wrap your head around the idea that someone is wrong on many things - but has common sense. Insofar as WUWT - they're definitely wrong on many things, but I've rarely seen any displays of common sense. <br /><br />The particular question he was asking at Greg Laden's back then has so many analogues in other fields that it's difficult to find a field that *doesn't* have one. Obviously he never really put any thought into it.<br /><br />But then, what would we expect from someone that calls himself the 'corrector' - almost inevitably that will be a person wrong on just about everything :)<br /><br />Kevin O'Neillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15751040367339659805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-67246956755975652062016-05-08T10:08:27.047+10:002016-05-08T10:08:27.047+10:00Against people who take a long time to spit?
