You gotta love science and all the drama. I wouldn't rule out this hypothesis.

He amazes me too. I believe that someone called him a PDF cannon. Just watch out where he is aiming.

"PDF cannon"?

I'm an interdisciplinarian,and you can't get more interdisciplinary than with a problem that involves (among other things)planetary impacts and paleoclimate,both of which I'm hugely interested in.

I find that studying the dialectics of a problem greatly increases my understanding of the subject.

The more debate ,the better.
