Pretending that the background radiation MUST be left over from the big

it "proves" that there was a big bang does make it clear how much they
really understand.

And just what do you think you're attempting to communicate

Since infrared astronomy is actually my job and there's an education and
public outreach component, Greg is, in some small percentage, paying me to
call you a dumbass on RBR. That's pretty cool. I'm posting this on
Sunday because I'm a dedicated public servant who brings work home.

I'm sure he'll be so inspired by your dedication he'll be
moved to provide a long quotation from An Inquiry into the
Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. However to really
make his day you need to persuade Chung to give up his
afternoon training ride to provide a Chung chart of
Kunichian crackpottery.
