You'd think someone who writes for such an august publication would be a little less of a chump, wouldn't you?

(ETA: Unless you're familiar with the output of such publications, I suppose, at least enough so to validate the "Gell-Mann amnesia" concept firsthand. I can't say they serve no useful purpose - one doesn't care to contemplate packs of feral journalists roaming the streets, shaking down sundry passersby for tweed and elbow patches - but really, one is well advised not to take them overly seriously.)

One would expect people to have some familiarity with the concept of "half-life" before accusing others of being chumps.

I do, but I have to confess I'm not all that much seeing the degree of applicability that would seem commensurate with such a trenchant response.
