You've described LP to a T. He knows a little Chemistry, that does not make
him an expert on any of the subjects he claims to know all about. Someday I
really must write Emory a letter concerning our good Doctor Lloyd, let them
in on how much he has damaged their reputation with his -------- posting.

Why do you lie so much LP?
Someday an Asteroid the size of Australia will be on a collision course with
Earth, and you will be the only one on Earth who knows how to deflect it,

with the lies you post.
