I looked into him about a month or so ago, after he'd posted an unflattering remark about my work. He might have an IQ of 200, but to put it bluntly, what he writes is "drivel". It may well have a kernel of truth, and there may well even be original thought in there, but it is so voluminous and so badly organised it is impossible to tell.
Basically, my advice to him would be to get a PhD. It doesn't teach you creativity, but does teach you how to organise and express your ideas so that others can possibly understand it. But I suspect Chris Langan is too proud to do this. At least Bruno has done his PhD, and his work is so much the better off for him having gone through that process, painful though it was.
