He seems really angry about the idea that land masses float... Maybe someone should explain to him that it's tectonic plates that float, and it's not water they float on. |

He also doesn't believe in the existence of electrons.

If he is so certain that he is right, why doesn't he do some respectable research and write some papers to prove his point?
His enthusiasm for the subject is pretty entertaining, though. |

I've never seen a scientific hypothesis put forward with such a juvenile delivery! I don't get it, if he has done all this research, why does he make no effort to open discussion! |

Reeks of Pseudoscience....
"Hi, here's my half-baked theory- prove me wrong."
Has anyone read Sagan's "The Dragon in My Garage"? Great book, and an eye opener regarding what exactly legitimate science is.
On a side-note, I was selling a bunch of my old Carl Sagan books at a garage sale once, and some old lady bought them all. She then asked if they were mine and I said "yes". Then she sweetly said "Do you know what they say about people that read Carl Sagan?" I said, "No, what?". Then her demeanor changed to all mean ad she said "It means you're SICK!!".
Usually I would respond to something like that with a series of well-placed "f-you"s, but I was so stunned at being called "sick" by a little old lady I couldn't spit anything out. |

I guess she must have thought she was doing some kind of favour to society by removing them from circulation. I wonder how many copies of Sagan's books she purchased in her mini crusade. |

OMG....fantasy world.....
Clip 2 is cool though. Not because of what he's saying but because it looks like it could be interesting to have someone knowledgeable to explain it  |

Sukhoi, yeah, but that's because he's right in Clip 2. Except for the fact that he discards the idea that material elsewhere is being subducted out of hand, without any evidence to support it. |
