You may have noticed that Jason does not claim to have found something everyone else has missed. Nor does he claim to have found a new conclusive piece of evidence ( Dan Howard's remark notwithstanding)
To suggest otherwise is to do Jason and his work a dis-service
I am looking forward to reading Jason's work, which should be a fairly comprehensive study, by what we know of it. D
But to foolishly believe that it is going to be conclusive would be to place unfair expectations on Jason. Only a fool or a child would do that. :lol:
Quote:So you're pre-judging againNot at all. I have not pre-judged at all, let alone 'again'. I am merely re-dressing an imbalance by pointing out that others have contributed to this subject,many eminent scholars included. To suggest that they somehow 'missed' something is insulting to all those people.
