The one thing which is quite obvious is Floyd's arrogant denigration of anybody who disagrees with him, interprets what he says literally, or fails to discern what it is he actually means from his arcane diatribes. He dismisses software and technics he does & won't use as some sort of lesser species.

No wonder he has to live where he does, and I am sure that he is the most respected and sought out technical blabber mouth in Barrow.

There are other folks who question Floyd's credentials and some of the stuff he says.

This was a discussion which when it came up in rec.photo.digital fell apart quite quickly when Floyd told Tony Cooper he was wrong regarding "Street Photography". It seems he also tried to fly his concept in dpreview forums. <http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/50358552>

Then there is this Barrow local who seems to have issues with Floyd. <http://majikimaje.com/WordPress/2010/04/28/floyd-davidson-barrows-pathological-liar/>

All of this might be true but it has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not his statement about reversible processes is correct. I can assure you that it is indeed correct. Arguments about this kind of subject are not settled by personal attacks. --
