There's a difference in asking questions and pushing as fact with no evidence. It swings both ways

- ares623 1y agoPlus he is an authority figure with a captive audience. He has a much higher responsibility than the average person speculating.
- dylan604 1y agoYeah it doesn't instill a lot of confidence in the quality of ivy league credentials when guys like this are running around spouting nonsense. I'm surprised there's not a clause in his employee handbook that says to not be an obvious troll. Kooky science is one thing but this is just the type of person the men with butterfly nets and white coats should be interested
- gojomo 1y agoHuh? What is Loeb's 'captive audience'?
- ceejayoz 1y agoUFO nuts desperate for anyone with a shred of academic credibility.
- gojomo 1y agoWhat is Loeb pushing as fact with no evidence? Can you provide a representative quote?
- dekhn 1y agoYou can easily answer this with a Google search.
- gojomo 1y agoNo, I can't, because all I've seen from Loeb is pretty clear about what is fact, and what is speculation. I don't know, and there's no way to find via "Google search", what HN user ~dylan604 is specifically alleging has been improperly "pushed as fact". If it's clear to you, can you share a representative quote from Loeb? He's got a lot of writing to choose from!
