My guess is Hoagland will drop the idea in whatever memory hole he puts his (increasing vast) failures.Chris Lopeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603182786879935663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051630750074978974.post-29524379821658069282011-02-22T14:31:24.344-08:002011-02-22T14:31:24.344-08:00As a married spud, I won't comment on her hotn...As a married spud, I won't comment on her hotness, but I do think getting a doctorate in oriental medicine (which sounds a lot like a PhD in superstition) does qualify someone as "dotty".Chris Lopeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603182786879935663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051630750074978974.post-43003846590439836142011-02-22T14:16:36.977-08:002011-02-22T14:16:36.977-08:00Robin looks pretty hot, but then a lot of those do...Robin looks pretty hot, but then a lot of those dotty New Age wimmin do.

It's the second time he has mentioned it (the first was in another 5 minute news update last week), so it must be part of his mythology now. What's really interesting about it is that after the first time he said that, James Concannon and I had a bit of a go around with Robin Falkov about it on Hoagland's public FB page. <br /><br />At first, she denied he ever said anything of the sort. Her tone at that point indicated she thought the whole idea was down right silly. Then James sent her a transcript of the segment, and suddenly she was back pedaling. She didn't admit she was wrong, just that we weren't understanding what Richard was really saying. She went on to deny that Richard's model is Egyptian (even though it involves some monuments on a plateau within quick driving distance of Cairo), and again acted as if we were speaking an alien language. I don't know if the woman just doesn't really listen to what Richard is saying (my wife sometimes zones me out too), or she is just as dishonest as Richard.Chris Lopeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603182786879935663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051630750074978974.post-29366780129971919372011-02-22T08:46:00.931-08:002011-02-22T08:46:00.931-08:00Expat, as I've said before, it's not ignor...Expat, as I've said before, it's not ignorance that drives C2C to invite him on, it's apathy. As long as Noory thinks Hoagland can hold an audience long enough for the sponsors to sell stuff, he'll be invited. Notice though, that he had to invite himself to that particular party. He's usually only invited for 5 minute updates these days. And considering how badly the last one of those went (not even the faithful are completely buying the comet=spaceship thing), it will probably be awhile for one of those too.Chris Lopeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603182786879935663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051630750074978974.post-27690012479383239052011-02-22T06:46:09.951-08:002011-02-22T06:46:09.951-08:00Updated 22 febUpdated 22 febexpathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10369924104634464934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051630750074978974.post-65545787623002565852011-02-21T12:58:39.589-08:002011-02-21T12:58:39.589-08:00Expat, perhaps Hoagland has forgotten it, but he a...Expat, perhaps Hoagland has forgotten it, but he actually said that Von Braun used this "new physics" on Apollo. Sure it was some time ago (on a C2C show with Joseph Farrell), but he did say it. You know, he should really try to keep better track of his own BS.Chris Lopeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603182786879935663noreply@blogger.com
