Re: Scholars and Theory of Science former Re: The Vinland Map's Ink

Well, if Ms. Johansson is unwilling or unable to answer questions that
are raised directly as a result of her own assertions and theories then
there is no reason for anyone to continue a dialog with her. Nor is
there any reason why anyone reading her material should give it any
consideration at all. One would be completely justified in ignoring
her.

Would she accept a theory that a famous professor in Denmark has
assured us that he was told by an Austrian monk that a solid anatase
runestone (formed at 800°C from an Alpine sand on a Viking-brand stove
in Minneapolis) is a doorstop at the Yale Beinecke Library and when it
was used to block open the doors the dust from this stone wafted into
the air and landed on the Vinland Map? Maybe she would! After all it
makes as much sense as some of her stories.
