LBB is a troll, plain and simple. He hasn't uttered anything new in two years. He has made a number of other errors besides the Nobel Prize snafu: he claimed circles were not ellipses; he claimed all the planets had "wildly eliptical orbits; that chimpanzees had tails; and so on. He won't ever admit he's screwed up (a sure sign of a troll) and when backed into a corner will attempt to have the thread locked or yanked (he's succeeded a number of times at this). And, with each new thread he resets his counter to zero and brings up the same old crap.
