tigerhawkvok writes "Stuart Privar provided Professor PZ Meyers of Pharyngula a copy of his book, Lifecode , for review. Over the course of the review itself and a few follow-ups, it became evident that the content was nonsense (including, among other things, ten-legged spiders and other phenomena strongly at odds with developmental biology). However, the common threat of lawsuits finally became a reality, and now Privar is suing Myers for $15 million. Can calling someone a "classic crackpot" in the face of such incorrect data have any chance at making it to court, or even winning the suit?"
