I zipped through the mp3 of hang em high's interview of Balsamo last night. Listening to Balsamo whine for 30 minutes about how nobody will debate him is pretty boring, so I probably missed most of it, but this part did catch my attention:
Damn you and your... your... math!

It is 25 minutes into the first hour. Almost worth listening for just for the disappointment in his voice.
Barrett: Speaking of breaking stuff, I understand you actually have some new information you were unable to pull together completely to bring on tonight's show, but you could talk a little bit about it.
Balsamo: Yeah, well right now.... we had an article that I wrote back in March, based on topography and obstacles at the Pentagon, seeing if this aircraft could... a 757 could actually pull a maneuver level out as seen in those dod 5 frame videos where you see an object across the lawn. To see if it could actually pull out of that dive based on g-load. And (sigh) it is my fault, I screwed up the math, I don't want to make excuses, but I rushed it too much, so of course these internet debunkers jumped all over it. They smelled blood and they went for it. Which is good, I mean they do serve their purpose in that respect. Sometimes, because they do keep us on the straight and narrow pretty much, but most of it is all mixed in with ad homs and noise.
