Well, isn't that fun to hear that from you. Now you understand
other people's response when you say that they should look
things up in dejaNews.

Well, actually, didn't you read my post a few issues ago,
this was also published in Nature, and a very convincing
rejection of this whole thing was published a few issues
later, nobody ever cites that.
So, rather that slandering other people (which you accuse
other people of doing constantly), how about you getting
informed?
