I don't recall ever having disagreed with anything I've read in Kraus. I
do, however, frequently disagree with the misinterpretations and
misquotations of Kraus and many other references which Cecil has made.

His frequent claims of "If you disagree with me, you disagree with
[Kraus, Maxwell, Balanis, Hecht, Heaviside, Terman, God, whoever] are
total baloney (to use a much kinder term than it deserves).

Yes, I plonked Cecil a couple of years ago. Seeing only the occasional
text quoted by others of his bizarre ramblings is more than enough.
Those which I do see reinforce my belief that I'm certainly not missing
anything of technical or educational merit.

For someone like me, Cecil can be (but usually isn't) a very useful
crackpot. I can be pretty sure he's wrong, but the process of educating
myself into turning that hunch into a dead certainty that I can prove
to everyone (except him) can be enlightening.
