I used to think this but reconsidered after hearing someone (NYU? or BYU?) wanted to hire him for half a mil.

Let's see, your theories have no predictive validity, and their practical implementation unambiguously lead to destitution and death. Literally. Further, you basically molest the patient you're charged with curing (and you defraud the US taxpayer with your wife's assistance at the same time). Yet you're not only regarded as worth listening to, you're a desirable academic commodity.

Very strange.
