How does my last claim suggest that "Lorentz and Einstein as well as Dirac
were "crackpots""?

They were proponents of the existence of some kind of ether.

Did they also present crackpot "theories" of whatever?

How dare you belittle the work of Freitznautzer!

I don't talk about his work, but if he disagreed with my above statement
then I dare to respectfully disagree.

It seems you're entirely unfamiliar with the history of physical
research on asparaguses and whatever . The following article is a
wonderful introduction:

E.R. Fnoggle: Asparaguses or whatever - the great
Gwobbul-Freitznautzer debate of 1875
Journal of Silly Studies, 48 (2), 1982, p. 543 - 243

In contrast, how do you dare to belittle the opinions of Lorentz, Einstein
as well as Dirac?

I have said nothing about the opinions of Lorentz, Einstein or Dirac.

I don't think so - do you?

You are very right about that!

I'm afraid that my university isn't subscribed to such journals...

In contrast, how do you dare to belittle the opinions of Lorentz,
Einstein
as well as Dirac?

True. Neither did I say anything about Freitznauer.

Cheers,
