   he was the Dean of Anthropology for 39 years, I guess he's earned his   
   retirement, but if you email me I'll give you his addy and you can

   Ah yes, Intelligence Magazine...well, I'll supply you their addy and my   
   ex-editor's addy as well, if it'll shut you up:) or maybe you'd like me   
   to post a picture of me holding up my article from the mag? sheesh..this   
   isn't about proof, it's about trust....
