I assume that the author is the proud owner of land in Arizona and a bridge
over the East River.

One of the easiest fools to trick is a half-educated fool who thinks that
knowledge in one field makes him expert in other fields.  And people enjoy
being fooled.  That explains the continuing popularity of magic and illusion
as entertainment.  

To the author: at least admit that you don't know what you are talking about
and that you could have been deceived.
