Gene 'expletive deleted' Scott was a dishonest con artist. A fraud who
claimed educational qualifications he didn't have. A liar who duped
money out of people who could ill afford it. An evil man who preyed on
the mentally weak. A philanderer, a crook, a charlatan - just out to
line his pockets at the expense of others. Corrupt to the core. A foul
loud-mouthed trickster who finally, due to his own abject stupidity,
died of an illness that most would survive unscathed. The world became
a much better place when he died.

Now Dishonest Ray. If you really think that is libel then here I am,
ready and waiting for your legal action.

BTW, if I've missed anything I'm sure some others will pitch in and I
can add their damnations to mine.

Bob: Only one error that I could find. Scott claimed to have a PhD in
Education from Stanford University. I believe that is true.

His claim, oft repeated in the past by Dishonest Ray, was that he was
awarded a unique PhD - a 'multi-discipline PhD' which had never been
issued by Stanford before or since.

I emailed Stanford on the topic and they told me that the degree
described does not exist now and has never existed in the past. Gene
Scott did indeed receive a doctorate in the philosophy of education
from Stanford, but the claims that the degree was "cross-departmental
in Philosophy and Religion" and "granted by the University itself and
not by any department which means it was the hardest degree to earn
and the last one(s) handed-out at graduation" are simply false. To be
fair, I don't know if Scott actually said he'd received this special
degree, or if Ray merely claimed it on his behalf.
