Regarding the "Boltzmann Brain" revised "paper" (i.e., piece of @#$
%) by Linde, Guth , Vilenkin, et al recently placed on the arXiv.org archive, the mad Zeppelin commander, wearing lederhosen and carrying an ice pick, spouted the following complete falsehood: " It's like a kettle of water on a hot stove---there is a small but finite probability that it will freeze. " What utter nonsense! I demand that he stand very close to said "hot stove" in his lederhosen and wait there until he verifies with his ice pick that the boiling water has frozen. Haaaaah, ha,ha! What sort of fool would believe such totally untestable and unscientific crap on basis of mental flatulence by "educated" fools who cannot distinguish between abstract mathematical symbols and the real world of nature. These statistical arguments all involve infinities and unrealistic over-idealizations that invalidate the analysis. Get a friggin' grip, commander! Best, RLO www.amherst.edu/~rloldershaw |

True the probability is infinitessimal, BUT IT IS NOT ZERO. Therefore PIGS WILL FLY, FER SURE, if you wait long enough (and if you have no clue about how nature actually works).
