You picked 2 unimportant points he made and totally ignored what he was trying to say.

The point was that many people said many different things that didn't happen at all, it makes no sense to pick one that guessed it right 59 years later.

My complete answer is in several parts, based on the different threads which existed before I started.

This part of the thread was to focus on the incorrect reading by ChuckMcM.

I followed up on the "what [ChuckMcM] was trying to say" (I assume the 'he' refers to ChuckMcM and not Teller) at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16048733 , which was posted about 5 minutes before you posted your criticism.

I do not believe that a single wall of text would be a better way to get my points across.
