Odd, you probably don't know much about Oriel36, but over on sci.astro.amateur he is well known as someone who is either a troll, unbelievably stupid, or mentally ill. Oriel36 (Gerald Kelleher) is incapable of answering simple questions, especially those that only require a YES or a NO answer. To do so would eventually lead to the unraveling of his wispy and tenuous theories, which the rest of us already know are 100% inaccurate. Oriel36 is all alone with his theories, he has not found a single professional who agrees with him. Because of this, he reasons that he must be superior to literally all of the great scientific minds of both the past and the present. Even in the face of STRONG CONTRADICTORY EVIDENCE to his theories, Oriel36 will only regurgitate endless quotes of dead astronomers, which he doesn't actually understand or interpret correctly, as evidence for them. Oriel36 is no astronomer, just as he is no climatologist, no anthropologist, no mathematician, or no geologist, but this does not stop him from spouting non-stop drivel, day after day. Many have tried to explain basic celestial mechanics to Oriel36 in simple, easy-to-understand terms, but he either doesn't read these posts or doesn't have the capacity to understand them. Instead, he responds to such posts by essentially starting all over again, from the top, with the same old worn-out arguments that my teen-aged grandchildren can blow out of the water with one swat. I have to give him credit, he carries on undeterred, and unconvinced that there is ever any possibility that that he is even slightly in error. Unlike the majority of us, Oriel36 has never learned anything here in these forums, and only in rare cases does he agree with anyone at all. It seems to me that whenever an interesting thread is started, it is soon disrupted by you-know-who's venomous desultory philippics, and the whole thing is hijacked for good. Arguing with Oriel36 is like hitting your head against the wall in that it feels pretty good when you finally stop doing it. Disagreeing with Oriel36 is quite fruitless, he is not at all receptive to friendly instruction, and often counters by calling you names, and that is too bad, because there are (and were) a lot of really smart people here who have a lot to offer the rest of us, and jerks like Oriel36 drive them away. Maybe he requires everyone's attention all of the time. Oriel36 wouldn't last 2 minutes on any moderated forum, and in that I find immense satisfaction. \Paul A
