Ruminating on the theoretical... Coates at play.
At a recent colloquium hosted by the BFT Peer Review of Minnesota , Coates was literally roasted for passing bogus data on a number of subjects including his now infamous Polar Wobble Hypothesis. Once touted (by Coates) as the 'New Celestial Mechanics', his theories have recently been exposed as complete and utter nonsense.
Coates has always subscribed to the basic dictum that knowledge is not a pre-requisite. While discussing his latestforay into the misunderstood, hecklers had a field day tearing into his faulty logic and halting presentation. The discussion got so heated, Coates left after twenty minutes stating, 'I gotta poop'.
    A particularly nasty bout with a bottle of Bourbon and an intense coffee jag
Not one to give up, Coates was back to the blackboard and the bottle. In a classic show of alacrity, he was overheardstating, 'Horace is a dink.
Noted geodesist, Horace Greenlee, was particulary viscious in his ruthless attack on Coates' use of synthetic data. 'Art made up his Polar Orientation data during a really nasty bout with a bottle of Bourbon. Andhe must have had a real coffee jag going when he came up with that Length of Day data. It's just another damnChinese coverup.'
    Sharon's plaything, Greenlee.
