Perpetual physicians

[arcticpenguin]

2003-10-10 Randi let this one slide without comment. Here's selected lines from the exchange between a Swift contributor and a perpetual motion promoter:

Anyone with the slightest knowledge in physics understands that.

reply:

So, your opinion and your theories mean nothing since we have already built the generator and it's working. We have mechanics and physicians in our team.

I took the liberty of bolding one word for emphasis.

 

[Dr. Popalot]

I notice that they didn't say what type of physicians they have. They are probably chiropractic physicians. Everyone know that group will say everything works with little to no proof. I know what I'm talking about as I have been a DC for over 18 years and know many that don't have a clue!

 

[BillyJoe]

Dr. Papalot, he meant to say "physicists".

 

[Deetee]

I reckon it must be a homoeopathic physician. Same reasoning as Popalot's.

 

[UnrepentantSinner]

No, no no.. the words are homonyms.

Fiz-ish-ens = Medicine people
Fiz-ik-ee-ens = Mechanic and Quantum people
