In DLTruth recently, Quinn Tyler Jackson hoisted someone named Beckwith as an anonymous reviewer of a paper by an infamous crank James Harris, with Beckwith and Jackson allegedly being in a "closed list".
But what Quinn didn't say was that this "eccentric" Beckwith "character" was also actively involved in attempted FRAUD to get Harris' mathematical paper published.
On February 29, 2008, Quinn didn't remember the facts about Beckwith.
On sci.math, on February 29,2008, Quinn had an exchange with someone named Mensanator.
Check it out yourself, by searching "beckwith" in sci.math in Google Groups. Or don't, and just read what I verbatim copied:

Mensanator replied:
"That's my understanding also. Beckwith has admitted here
he added his name to the paper in order to enhance its
acceptance by other journals, not the original journal in
question."
So, I ask, this reviewer Beckwith should be trusted by Quinn? Does Quinn dare to continue referring to Beckwith as one of the reviewers in Quinn's infamous "closed list", with Beckwith having doctorates in physics and mathematics?
The DLTruth folks here shouldn't trust Quinn, when only this past February Quinn was reminded that BECKWITH ADMITTED TO FRAUD!
Quinn conveniently leaves out, in the recent threads in DLTruth, the attempted fraud of one of the alleged "closed list" reviewers, despite the fact that Quinn was reminded of it recently.
Poor Quinn. Poor intellectually dishonest Quinn. Poor ethically-bereft Quinn Tyler Jackson.
Poor poor poor poof poor Quinn Tyler Jackson.
