Sorry, I was just poking fun at it (and by reference you). I
have many quotes I like along the lines or "anybody sure of anything
is likely wrong" - It all lies in the degree of certainty of a belief;
Absolute certainty is for fanatics and fools (I just try for "correct"
more often than not).
Now if Loren were actually short for Lorentz...

P.S. I just wrote an overly long-winded technical response to a previous
poster who properly pointed out my statement was not really an improvement
on yours.
