Oh, This is the first time I have seen Michael peskin. I have known him through his famous QFT book. I did not even know he is still alive.

Feels good putting a face to the author of one the books that made you struggle but also enjoyed.

This isn't helping the case: Of all the players involved in this drama in the article, the video it references, and this thread, Professor Dave comes across as the worst. He strikes me as smug, arrogant, and intellectually dishonest. He also seems to have an unpleasant personality, from how he reacts to criticism on the internet.

Dave is a bully.

		I agree that he's not the best messenger, but in this case, he's right about Hossenfelder. I think the interviews with the 6 physicists stand alone. For the most part, Dave just lets them talk.
