YouTube- How Hot Is the Core of the Earth?
This guy has gotten a free ride for the most part on the outrageous things he has said.
Most people know about his inventing the internet (this one is actually not completely true) but he has said so many stupid things. Like........
"Throughout most of my life, I raised tobacco. I want you to know that with my own hands, all of my life, I put it in the plant beds and transferred it. I've hoed it. I've dug in it. I've sprayed it, I've chopped it, I've shredded it, spiked it, put it in the barn and stripped it and sold it." - he later admitted that he was not telling the truth.
"I certainly learned a great deal from 3,000 town hall meetings across my home state of Tennessee over a 16-year period" - that would be about one town hall meeting every other day for 16 years. I doubt if he actually went to that many.
"When we come here, we see the longpole pine and the Douglas fir." - No such thing as a longpole pine
"I tell you that Michael Jackson is unbelievable, isn't he. He's just unbelievable." - the subject was basketball
"Who ARE these people??" - Looking at several historical busts. Host replied...George Washington...Ben Franklin....(it's on tape)
I can't find the quote but I heard him claim that he use to plow fields with teams of horses!?
This guy deserves to be roasted, not idolized...he's an idiot.
