OF COURSE THAT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH HIS EXPERIMENTS! If the man is known for being a fool then it's not unreasonable to think his experiments may have been foolishly performed, assuming he did any experiment at all and didn't just go straight to the typewriter.

And you think this ridiculous situation has continued unabated for centuries. Damien that is Bullshit, just Bullshit.

Good God almighty! I would estimate that those two journals published about 60% of the Scientific discoveries made in the 20'th century, and you are comparing them to some religious rag. BULLSHIT!
