Myers on Townes
Paul Myers, a pissant biologist (redundant, I know) from a podunk university, writes of Nobel Laureate physicist Charles Townes
"Pious frauds are a dime a dozen, but pious frauds who have won a Nobel prize? They're worth a million and a half dollars."
The unmitigated temerity of Myers is appalling. Myers, a contemptible worm of a man who lives (and who will die) in obscurity and whose research and a dime would not get me a gumball from a gumball machine dares question the integrity of a great scientist who has contributed to the world in a substantive way (something of which Myers is incapable). Such is the mark of small men with small minds.
