I'm reminded of a conversation a friend of mine had in the mid 1960s.
He was talking to a specialist in ancient near eastern history who
remarked that Velikovsky's grasp of mythology and ancient history was
pathetic, but his knowledge of science was impressive.  Oddly enough,
my friend (an astronomer) had the opposite opinion.
