One of the haverim, off-list, said this assertion is blatantly false.
I'll admit that I haven't read the Greek historians, so apparently, I
haven't the faintest clue what I'm talking about, in this regard. I
may have some extremist views, but I should hope that I'm not an
obscurantist who stands behind blatant falsehood.

So again, if anyone wants to agree or disagree, revise, magnify or
dispose of/dismantle, etc. what I said in that post (the whole post,
not just what I quoted above), please, by all means. I was more
thinking about loud when I wrote what I did.
