Re Lyndon LaRouche: I first heard of him in connection with the Fusion
Energy Foundation, an organization that deserves some inspection by
Martin Gardner in a second edition of *Science: Good, Bad, and Bogus*.

The FEF is a curious mixture of rationality (promoting fusion research
and blasting the anti-nuke cretins) and blithering bogosity in the
extreme (a bizarre interpretation of Plato, and a truly hilarious
theory of the Aristotelian Conspiracy (including Bertrand Russell and
the English police), how Aristotle's Law of Identity ("P is P")
shows how evil those Aristotelians really are, and how fusion reactions
show that this neo-Platonic theory of theirs is really something!).
