Loved him and the whole shebang until I found out we have him to thank for the entire ‘greenhouse effect’ BS - only because he couldn’t face being wrong about Venus NOT having a temperature like Earth AND THAT ITS SURFACE WAS MOLTEN!

My problems with Sagan stem from his vilifying critiques of Velikovsky’s works, panning them, denying everything about them, WITHOUT EVER SO MUCH AS READING THEM!!!! Sagan did not even rebut them by addressing the points made in them, many of which have been proven correct, but rather attacked Velikivsky for not being a scientist in Sagan’s field and therefore not worthy of even cursory consideration. Hi attacks were pseudo-scientific closed-mindedness of the worst kind. . . Sagan simply refused to look, to be challenged.
NDGT...lol.
Zawi Hawass...the Pompous, tiresome, and irksome Anti-Semite of Egyptology.
Carol Fontaine, the Pompous tiresome and irksome Negator of New Testament
and NDGT, the pompous Tiresome and irksome Ass of Astrophysics.
