Sailer's other writings are no good reason to downvote the factual, relevant excerpt above from user 'occam'.

And regarding those other writings, do you think you can give a fair summary, and a convincing refutation, when you haven't read them?

I've read some of them, and I followed his spat with Gladwell. I also didn't vote down his comment. My point was more that Steve Sailer in general has never struck me as the model of intellectual integrity.
