IOW, he’s a dilettante, like Al Gore. The article was mildly provocative, but not particularly informative. He does give the impression of not really understanding what he is talking about.
Yes, I agree.
But look at the length of time he has been making a living writing about things he does not understand. Amazing.
But also remember, this is TIME magazine, the people who put “We are all Socialists Now” on the cover.
It Is All Illusion.
“...a stream of microwaves slamming into Earth...”
I’m neither a physicist nor an electromagnetic engineer but IIRC, the radiation of which he speaks is the 3 degree Kelvin attributed to the Big Bang.
While it is traveling at 300,000km/sec like everything else in the spectrum, I can’t picture radiation from 3K as having the energy to be called “slamming”.
Can anyone enlighten me?
