I love when Internet crazy people call out other Internet crazy people for having stupid theories. "Well, obviously the Earth is concave and has a glass dome over it, but obviously there aren't other planets that cause cataclysms in our solar system. That's just stupid."

As a geology major, birefringence is something that every mineral (read: everything) has, and it can only be seen in thin section in a petrographic microscope. It's literally just the color it transmits when you have crossed polarizers in your scope.

I tried taking some coworkers on this journey of explanation, but I left them dead with laughter that flat-earthers exist. I have to wait to actually hang out with my friends to share this.

I love when Internet crazy people call out other Internet crazy people for having stupid theories. "Well, obviously the Earth is concave and has a glass dome over it, but obviously there aren't other planets that cause cataclysms in our solar system. That's just stupid." Müteşekkir Sultan Selim the Hedgesultan, October 08, 2016, 12:28:52 pm
This reminds me of Martin Gardner's Fads and Fallacies (pub. 1957), which discussed various pseudoscientific theories (the first chapter, "Flat and Hallow," is, incidentally, about the flat and hollow earths!); in the introduction to the second ed. of the book, he wrote:
THE FIRST EDITION of this book prompted many curious letters from irate readers. The most violent letters came from Reichians [i.e. follows of Wilhelm Reich] furious because the book considered orgonomy alongside such (to them) outlandish cults as dianetics. Dianeticians, of course, felt the same about orgonomy. I heard from homeopaths who were insulted to find themselves in company with such frauds as osteopathy and chiropractic, and one chiropractor in Kentucky "pitied" me because I had turned my spine on God's greatest gift to suffering humanity. Several admirers of Dr. Bates favored me with letters so badly typed that I suspect the writers were in urgent need of strong spectacles. Oddly enough, most of these correspondents objected to one chapter only, thinking all the others excellent. Quote from
My outladish theory is merely brilliant minds bucking the system, like Gallileo or Copernicus. Your outlandish theory is the meaningless babble of cranks and weirdos. It has always been this way, it seems.

This is one of my favorite episodes. My favorite parts are the workout section and the little section where The Intern is talking about the concave lensing of the glass ceiling in the sky or whatever and this exchange happens:
Lemon: Does anyone here wear contacts? Intern: I do. Lemon: Do you know what he's talking about here? Intern: I DO!

Thanks had no idea there was such a conspiracy on the topic. Since nasa said there was hydrocarbosns on other "planet" I have always thought it to be strange. Cause prior "science" has told it to be a finit amount and that we are running out. Now its all over the universe. come on.. they are so backwards and confused, just making up bs on the fly. like cuting puzzle peaces to fis into place.

So, I was re-listening to this episode today and, in an attempt to figure out what the hell any of the people on that forum were talking about, decided to do some Googling to see if anyone else was talking about this Steven Christopher fellow and his nutty ideas.
I found out he was arrested back in October for threatening to kill the president... (https://www.brownsvilleherald.com/news/local/man-accused-of-threatening-president-ruled-incompetent-to-stand-trial/article_524f7b88-cd61-11e8-87d4-131c782f2315.html)
Comparing the photos to the Youtube videos as well as the fact that the only comment is a guy accusing the reporter of silencing the science of the concave Earth leads me to believe this is definitely our guy.
So not only has he now been arrested for threatening to kill the president, this is apparently not the first time this has happened to him nor the first president he's threatened!
