I will temporarily suspend my default preference not to mock others' beliefs and send you all to Hell. (And what a devilishly great photo of Asimov that is).

IIRC this was his famous "There is no afterlife!" speech received via seance by Mildred Hack of Santa Barbara, in which he also stated the film version of Contact was rubbish. You mean you've never heard of it?!?

How on Earth do you find this sort of rubbish? Do you have an automated software routine which hunts it out especially?

(Subsidiary questions as to why you want to search for this sort of rubbish are to be left as an exercise for the reader....)

Mostly what suprises me about this is the absence of an extended rant. I thought the usual drill was to identify the guilty and then spend several thousand words explaining why such people are so bad. Instead this doesn't seem to be more than a series of wanted posters.
