I am not a professional historian. Just an avid amateur. But a bit more serious than the poster in question.

I would certainly hope that said the poster makes no claims to be a serious historian--I'm afraid that in itself would give the profession a bad name.   Much as it pains me--and you know it does-- I'd have to say that it does not take much to be more serious than the poster, who seemingly has no idea of the difference between a fact and a probability, and considers that obscene ranting substitutes for logic and facts.   

Though admittedly he could give a master class in obscene ranting.

But don't worry, we'll teach him logical thinking and careful writing--it's obvious somebody needs to. Not that we'll ever bring him out of the gutter--which is after all, his home.

And in the meantime, he does provide--at least fitfully amusing--entertainment.

But sometimes I think he's not happy. And that troubles me--since his happiness is paramount over all else on Mudcat.


But the burden of proof, as Mousethief noted, is still on the poster in question, and nobody else.
