Lynn clearly made an honest mistake, posting a relevant link without
realizing that it had been discussed previously.

Olcott is a crank (take a look at comp.theory if you're curious).  They
are not comparable.

My personal solution is to killfile olcott in this newsgroup, so I never
see his posts here.  What I do see is other posters replying to him.

If you must reply to olcott here, at least don't quote his entire
article and continue arguing with him.
