This reminds me of Faraday's complaint- Michael Faraday, the 19th century
physicist, was once asked his opinion of another scientist. He hemmed and
hawed a bit, but couldn't really praise the man. His interlocutor asked
him if this person was *always* wrong- and Faraday replied, "He's not that
consistent."
Ouch.
