This is supported by Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity concerning the characteristics of light. Specifically, photons of light can behave dually like a stream of high-speed, submicroscopic particles, but also like a wave phenomenon.
AFAIK, wave/particle duality is part of QM, not SR. Einstein's work on the photoelectric effect is related to it, also, but not Relativity. What more proof does one need that this "mystery e-mail" by an "anonymous professor" is either a hoax, or the machinations of an ill-educated nutcase?
However, the Creationists will in general jump to defend this article. No wonder scientific work is being outsourced.
