It's neither here nor there for me , I just pasted what he wrote .....but are you ok , taking his word for it?
Not unless there is supporting data. But you brought it up and you presented the source, so its obviously not "here or there" for you - you've a vested interest in bringing it up. So it could be all bullshit, partly bullshit or all true. There's no way to know.
I know what you're trying to do, but you should probably give it up. You're just not that clever, ol' chap.
