What you are actually peddling are the bizarre theories of Attila Grandpierre. Grandpierre is a research assistant at an astronomical observatory in Hungary; I doubt he's well known even in his field of solar neutrino research, since he's not at a facility capable of doing frontier research.

Well you may not have much use for astrophysicist Dr. Grandpierre, RWP. But he is actually quite well-thought of -- by such as NASA, ESA, and EU, at whose conferences he is a frequent invited speaker. (You've been to his web site at Konkoly Observatory, Budapest, based on your remarks -- so you know this is true.) He is about to publish a major article on the organization of the Sun, invited by The Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy -- a peer review journal.

You're entirely entitled to your opinion. But that's a fur distance away from validating the gratuitous criticism you have flung in Attila Grandpierre's direction.

p.s.: To my last -- If you're going to pan the Overman and McTaggert books, RWP, don't you think you ought at least to have the dignity to read them first?

I read a wonderful book for you, that is by your suggestion/recommendation: Max Born's Relections of a Nobel Laureat. Maybe you could read the Overman and McTaggert in return, and then share your thoughts with me?

In Born's Relections, his son Gustav gets in the last word. In the Epilogue, he cites from his father's Nobel Lecture:

"I believe that ideas such as absolute certitude, absolute exactness, final truth, etc. are figments of the imagination which should not be admissible in any field of science. On the other hand, any assertion of probability is either right or wrong from the standpoint of the theory on which it is based. This loosening of thinking seems to me to be the greatest blessing which modern science has given to us. For the belief in a single truth and in being the possessor thereof is the root cause of all evil in the world."
