I will grant that he does occasionally offer good information. The
problem is separating it from the crap. Example: that whole business the
other day about apples was pure nonsense pulled whole-cloth out of that
overly large orifice. And it happens too often to credit him with
anything approaching rational balance.

His Nazi-sneer posts where he attacks people so insanely and
immoderately serve as enough reason to discount most of what else he
provides. It would be one thing if her were being provoked by them. When
he disagrees with someone, suddenly they don't know how to cook, have
never cooked anything, don't know anything about food, are stupid - and
it's all so flat-out nuts that if there's any good info in the middle of
the dementia, it's like trying to pull something you're gonna cook with
out of a cesspool.

His comments about people's mothers, and his bizarre sexual obsessions
add further poison to an already tainted mix. Why, exactly, everybody
else has to be wrong and inferior to him, by his telling, if not in
perfect lockstep is pretty much all one needs to assess his
contribution. He seems to have lightened up with his plagiarizing and
quoting copyrighted materials. Swell. He's less of a crook than he used
to be. What a ringing endorsement.
