DAVESCOTT BRANCHES OUT - CURES CANCER -
http://scienceblogs.com/insolen....roa.php
My attempt to let others View The Tard:
In most of the cases involving internet quackery, you can follow the trail of "why" by following the money. However, in DaveScot Springer's case, you have to follow the Cheesy Poof’s trail, that keeps him at his posting and fighting weight of @ 290. He would actually weigh less except that his fingers have wiped @ 5 lbs of crumbs onto his dirty, sweat-stained t-shirt.
I also suspect that in Dave's opinion, (which is the only right one, as far as he is concerned), DCA and Cheesy Poofs get him a cheap high. And when you are like Dave, and the Captain of a high-powered house boat, you need that kind of release.
Cheesy Poofs are also vital to Dave, because he also has the HUGE responsibility of banning anyone with a dissenting opinion as Bill Dembski's lackey on his IDiot blog.
So don't be too hard on Dave. He's done as well as you can expect a delusional, chubby ex-Marine, to do. He has published drivel about evolution, and backs intelligent design. He has recently started posting against global warming, and as you bring up in detail, “cancer cures”. He is clearly in the running for the Lifetime Achievement Don Quixote Award, with all the windmills he tilts at.
If his "little friend" would take the time to actually read what DaveScot has posted on various web-sites, they would understand and distance themselves from this nut-job.
Brief CV:
*Self-professed autodidact with IQ “in the 150++ range (based on SAT equivalency, NOT actual testing!)
*Ex-Marine – worked on aircraft repair. After Viet Nam, before first Gulf war.
*Married and lives on houseboat in TX (I suspect he lives in the basement of his mother’s house)
*Dell-Made millionaire – got rich in the dot-com boom and cashed out. He says.
*Blog “Moderator” for William Dembski’s Uncommon Descent website. He is supposed to keep the information flowing, but since ID has not real information, and is entirely a political attack on evolution, in reality, this means that he bans anyone with a dissenting opinion. For a more detailed look at the inanities and stupidity exhibited by Springer and his uninformed minions, please visit:

Springer has the focus ability of an “idiot savant” and can totally ignore any verified and verifiable scientific evidence and discoveries in favor of “alternate evidence” and woo. For example, his latest delusion is to deny Global Warning, and he is comfortable railing against GW science, because he “looked at gross data from print-outs” for a couple of hours. Since he is a legend in his own mind, his 2 hours of reading qualifies Springer to lecture on Global Warming.
As discussed in depth by Orac here, Springer also has more ability to cure cancer than Doctors and entire decades of research scientists. Of course he has probably read up on cancer now for a couple of hours, so at least it’s understandable. At least to him.
