basically crazed Chomsky like blather

which his Ayn Rand, I'm smart than everyone else ego rot, where he takes a lousy once-popular fad like Chomsky and sees language as a self-correcting error code

the crazy diagrams are pretty

and well one of his books proves he's right and Einstein is wrong
for what it's worth

people seem to like his 1970 ish book on pi
which I remember the creepy cover of the first edition

and it's mildly liked today in I think three revised editions

basically he's your crazy Ayn Rand loving Czech emigre Libertarian Electrical Engineer
who thought proving Einstein in error was easy than trisecting the angle
