Brain Use/40 hertz and apologies

Well, now I'm sorry I jumped so hard on Mr. Sargent!

I had feared he would be another in a long line of grandiose pundits
who have proved to be entirely refractory to criticism, but this and
his last post on CCK suggest that he is not one of them.

His eagerness to jump into neuroscience is admirable; but in future,
misunderstandings could be avoided by appropriate introductions of
material, e.g. "Here is what I found on the internet relating to this
subjject".  We have been plagued by people posting nonsense in this
newsgroup, on the "authority" of some vast unread (and unpublished)
corpus of work in which they explain everything in the world.
