IAN: So that's your definition of "crackpot."
Well, you just fulfilled it. Now how about
putting some substance where you "mouth" is.

You allege without evidence that there exists
somewhere a shortfall between "arguments pre-
sented" (although you have not indicated which
ones these are) and "actual substance and con-
tent." So where, pray tell, is the "actual
substance and content" of your argument?
