“Have You Ever Had an Academic Researcher Who Was So Impressed By Your Stuff That He Elected to Devote 16 Months of His Life to Researching It in Depth and Then Concluded That It All Checked Out? On the Morning of May 13, 2002, I Would Have Told You That Such a Thing Was Impossible. But Here We Are.”

Set forth below is the text of a comment that I recently posted to the discussion thread for another blog entry at this site:

“ 10 percent of the American public loves my stuff. I have had more effusive praise directed at me over the past 22 years than any other poster in any of our communities that I can think of.”

None of that is real. You live in an imaginary world.

Yeah, yeah.

Have you ever had an academic researcher who was so impressed by your stuff that he elected to devote 16 months of his life to researching it in depth and then concluded that it all checked out? On the morning of May 13, 2002, I would have told you that such a thing was impossible. But here we are.
