On one level you can tell this guy is intelligent, his love of the subject material draws you in. But then his statements about lunar v solar eclipses, I just disagree with completely.

It's good sometimes to be reminded that differences of opinion aren't always down to stupidity.

யொவ் யார் வெனா யார வெனுமுன்னா stupid சொல்லலாம். அப்படி சொன்னா அது உண்மை ஆகாது.

Most often difference of opinion arises due to understanding or rather misunderstanding. And misunderstanding arises due to the language or linguistic barrier.

It takes intelligence to see through the language barrier and to understand someone. Just disagreeing and calling someone stupid shows one's own intellectual deficiency.

True, it's just he loosened the notion of real and virtual to an extent that's unfamiliar to people.

Anyway nice profile name. :D

In what way, and why?
