Look at the "Mission" statement and at "Santilli on Einstein" . Best
joke of the millenium.

I had /just/ ran out of idiots to name my cluster nodes after, too.

I am always amazed that people put so much effort into
such daft ideas.

Very special. He appears to suffer from some kind of tunnel vision (what's
his problem with Einstein??). Perhaps he was too involved (a long time ago)
with writing papers on SRT for Physical Review D. But his expose on "victims
of manipulatory academic practices" looks interesting. :-))

PS Not clear what a video on Antarctica has to do with all that...

I'm not getting the joke.. can you explain for me? Here's the
mission statement:

quote
Mission
The association primary aim is to defeat scientific obscurantism and
promote scientific truth.
The association secondary aim is to promote scientific debates among
the scientific community at large. There are no economic interests,
or considerations to the association.
/quote


quote
"Rather than being diminished by the advancement of physical
knowledge, the stature of Albert Einstein is therefore magnified by
the physical intuition and scientific honesty that led him to state as
clearly as possible the physical arena of applicability of his ideas"

"There is no doubt that the mind who mastered the reduction of
available knowledge into one, single, physical theory, the special
relativity, was that of Einstein"

"IT IS THE DUTY OF EVERY PERSON TO HONOR THE MEMORY OF ALBERT EINSTEIN
AS ONE OF THE SINGLE GREATEST CONTRIBUTORS TO HUMAN KNOWLEDGE"
/quote


OK that last one in all caps is rather amusing, but still.. best joke
of the millenium ??

The joke is that the list runs like the "who's who" of antirelativisic
fringe lunatics :-)

Hmm... the label "antirelativistic" does not match either the "Mission
statement" or "Santilli on Einstein" as quoted here above. And "fringe" and
"lunatic" are in the eyes of the beholder. But I did find the above
citations rather amusing indeed. :-)
