How many PHD degrees were awarded on the PiltDown Man fraud before it was discovered? 100? 500? who can say for sure without going to each University and doing the historical research. A conservative estimate would be at least 100

You floated this before and it sank. Got any more evidence for it this time or are you just forgetful?

I do not believe that it was the poster to whom you are responding who made this claim previously. Rather, a different FReeper creationist lied repeatedly in claiming that "over 500 doctoral dissertations" were written about Piltdown Man, then steadfastly refused to provide any evidence for his assertion and handwaved away all evidence that contradicted his claim. I do recall, however, that the poster to whom you are responding did join in supporting that particular creationist's lies despite the fact that all evidence showed that the claim that "over 500 doctoral dissertations" were written on Piltdown Man was a lie.
