...that you have (wisely) abandoned the conviction that your claims for your products can be explained by widely accepted physics? That you are now advertising advocacy of off-mainstream views of science would seem to suggest this.BTW, there's no indication in what I've seen that Josephon has a commercial interest in these ideas. You may accept them or reject them, but there's no obvious profit motive mixed up in his advocacy of off-mainstream ideas.

Attention can be a stronger motive. If it is not coming from ones peers or not in a positive form then getting it from the media can be a worthwhile substitute.
actually, I'm the model of consistency. I do not think I ever suggested any of my claims or explanations fell under the category of "widely accepted." That's a pretty loaded phrase.As for Josephson's commercial interest in these ideas, or lack thereof, you should probably ask him.
...how your (actually, our) antagonist -- who refuses to listen to proffered actualities yet discusses them with bland assurance in a major magazine -- now has to misrepresent your explanations as well?
we all have jobs to do, he's just doin' his
Are you now, or have you ever been, outside the mainstream?
Inquisitive sort, ain't he?
