I can't judge Kaku's writing because I've not read it. I can't
judge Kaku's scientific papers because I've not read those either,
nor can I judge his abilities as a teacher.

I was questioning Kaku's 'brilliance' because of his particular
activism. (that's why I gave those Google links) To me, that spoke
volumes about him (what he said, how he went about it, etc),
and I had no interest in looking at other output from him.
