If I'm reading this guy right, his entire argument is invalidated because we have objectively measured the velocity of light in air, and other media. Correct?

Well, that I can't tell you, because I didn't read the article. What I meant was that I'd answer any questions about QM.

One thing I can tell you about QM crackpots in general is that they think that all the weirdness comes from the theory, the result of an error in mathematics that can be corrected at a single stroke. In reality, the weirdness is an experimental fact. It can't be "done away with". QM may not be correct, but the correct theory will be weird in exactly the same ways.

OH...this guy thinks he can do away with the complexity of the mathematics.

It appears (to me) that he's doing it by pulling the partical photons with the wave associated with them.
