Eric,
> I disagree. There are explanations for the fact
Ok. This time I will seriously recommend you either take a course in 
remedial reading, or disconnect the "reply" button in your email. This is 
the second time you've falsely accused me of something.
I provided information on an *historical* model, which was the model 
presumed to be the case by many ancient and medieval authors, and thus 
should be the model we use to inform ourselves how to properly read and 
understand what they wrote. I not only pointed that out, but provided links 
to accounts of the 11th c. Arab philosopher and scientist who is credited 
(in the Islamic and Western world) with having been the first to 
conclusively falsify that model so that science could march on, and some 
handicapped reader in the 21st c. could say he "disagrees" with that model 
without embarrassing himself or being required to show scientific proof.
>> So the light model does not conform to transcendent other-power paradigm
>> both you and Artur are wary of.

> Creative interpretation, you 're ripe for Oprah.
When she runs a show on handicapped readers and false accusers, I'll 
recommend you.
