I was wondering when the other resident pseudo skeptic debunker was going to come here and say some silly thing.
Typical and empty.
Running out of ammo guys? Sinking ship?

You know, when Copernicus suggested the Earth revolved around the Sun, it literally took until that entire generation of people died, and a fresh one could approach the problem in an unbiased nature, for people to start realizing that Copernicus was right, despite all the "experts." There were a ton of them that "debunked" Copernicus. They all died before ever realizing they were completely wrong.
So I have a theory, too: this guy is just another one of history's examples of people not being able to cope with evidence that suggests things in major contradiction with the way they already see and understand their world.

Ah yes, you trot out the old "Galileo argument" (although you use Copernicus instead of Galileo, but same idea.). There's a problem here: Copernicus had logic and facts to back up his theory. Your theory does not have such a backing.

Good job shooting yourself in the foot again SAP.
78 to 7, that in my book is a rout.
