Yes I was being insulting. It often shakes people out of complacency when they know there is some truth to the insult. Worked on you, but it may not have been needed. You did at least partially admit error even if the mind reading comment was one of those "attempts to shift blame". Robert seems to need it. Sorry for continuing in the same vein with you without giving you the benefit of the doubt.
Pretty much agreed with everything else you said. I'll even have to admit you can get good information from a bad book, it's just that in this case there are far better sources for the information Robert has championed as being of value without having to wade through a book by someone who has proven his lack of accuracy and honesty.
see ya
