James Randi kindly and very quickly responded to my last post which I mailed him:
Looking over the Sam Nicholls article, I’m appalled at the number of errors and outright lies in it. Do you know if Nicholls is still alive? If so, I should make an attempt to have him present the proof for some half-dozen of his fantastic claims, hoping that he might at least try to do so.
My answer:
No, I don’t know if Nicholls is still around. I guess so – according to himself he’ll survive forever in some subatomic form or other
I only found his article as I searched for specific citations from the Danish translation.
It’s scary, though, that his version of your work is the one that keeps circulating among the woo woo types, and obviously getting even more twisted when being translated.
Mr. Randi answers
The bottom line here is: they can’t fight the logic and the facts, so they resort to ad hominem and lies…
So true. Dampier-Jeans and her likes tend to believe anything they read as long as it fits their twisted perception of reality. Furthermore she adds to these lies by doing a bad translation without checking the facts. But then again: Facts and critical thinking will only spoil her business, so who can blame her.
