All the technical people are flabbergasted by the latest video. We are now convinced that it's all a joke. The Irish do love a punch line and that is just the phrase Sean has used.
Unfortunately, many people we call "the believers", are now suffering from the Dunning-Kruger effect. Some could go off the deep end and be a threat to Steorn when they reveal the hoax, scam or whatever it is. Me, I'm done with it. Too much time wasted. T On Wed, Jan 20, 2010 at 1:04 PM, Stephen A.
