Enough With Janko's Dissertation Already

Old:

New:
HOLINESS AND HUMANISM: A Comparative-Religions Commentary on Book 2 of Cicero's Laws, with Special Reference to Confucianism and Chinese Thought.

No kidding ... instead of hanging around the DL fora, it sounds like Uncle Janko should have been hanging around the Cicero fora.

I always make the example of the 15yo wop bum who -online- could be mistaken for a medically trained athlete able to advise about illegal performance drug concoctions...even business owners and chemical companies sent him 'samples for research'...

Now that took place on some big junk site used as advertising vehicle for its millionaire owners & their business, whose mainstream audience consisted in retarded, hyper or just plain maladjusted teenagers probably drugged up to their eyeballs for weird personality disorders and adding alcohol and pot on top.
Would he have fooled a truly competent audience?
Not at all.
The same happens with all the internet impostors, mountebanks, drama queens and plain mentally disturbed who fight to monopolize the gallery's attention.
All the five stars neurosurgeons, philologists, engineers, kung-fu great-masters, billionaires...won't survive a minute among truly competent people...it's like the 'funny' guy around the corner who tells a bigger 'story' every day but none believes him no matter how strong his will to the contrary is.
Who could Janko fool with his pig latin and one-liners in Swahili or Hungarian?
Thomas Chip White who posts online in-between filming gay  teen fairies shoving huge objects up their cavernous exhaust?
