You wrote: " though the author notes that Einstein, or more accurately, Einstotle, died with an open copy of Velikovsky’s ‘Worlds in Collison’ on his desk." Where is the source for that? Looking at his sad face all these years I often wondered if he actually believed the plagiarized, speculative, never tested, nonsense that made him a "genius". Just imagine if all the idiots in the world proclaim you as such. It would be intolerable. It would be like being King Midas.

It is from one of Einstotle’s hagiographies and from Velikovksy. It might not be true, who knows really, but Einstotle did study his works. I am actually updating the Velikovksky articles. Einstotle said yes to catastrophe, but offered no reason for the catastrophes :) ‘The Science’ which accepts his weird tensor calculus as gospel, has simply ignored these ‘catastrophes’. Pick and choose I guess.

Look forward to the Velikovsky updates.

The open book claim is from Laird Scranton and his revision of the heresy. I have seen photos of Einstein's messy desk when he supposedly died, I can't see WIC on his desk, but it is a jumble of papers and files. Laird is convinced it was there. Given his letter to Velikovsky (2nd post to come next week) he definitely read it and had some ideas about the content.

Can't wait - thanks. You are covering all the ground I have so long been too busy or lazy to cover myself. Thanks for that. I had no real idea before reading your posts that none of the so called proofs of heliocentrism were so pathetically flimsy. Parallax, stela aberration, phases of Venus, red shift, gyroscopes, big pendulums, retrograde motion, and so on. You have covered them all. I did not know that Albert never did an experiment. I now hold that if we look closely at any so called scientific truth we will find the same thing. Speculation is not truth it is just speculation. Indeed, can you think of even one scientific truth that is proven to be real? Even one? I mean real in the real world not just a mathematical circle?

Yes, anyone can analyse it, most people are intimidated or don't feel 'educated enough'. A carpenter is better educated than Einstotle. Will soon go through the maths behind Relativity. Tautological to say the least. A good grad student in maths or physics can easily see the problems with it. But to change the paradigm....well that would end the money, worldviews and careers, of many people. :)
