*****GK: My point was not whether he was "well known"
or a "nobody". I wondered if he was an "anybody" i.e.
a real person, not just an invention like the George
Kaplan of the Hitchcock film. According to Abdullah he
is real. Otherwise I quite agree with the notion that
what matters is not "quis dicit" but "quid
dicitur".******

*****GK: I couldn't draw any facile conclusions about
the validity or non-validity of his views simply on
the basis of the super-abbreviated statements of that
newspaper interview. He does however cite authorities.
I'm not familiar with most, but I do know Georgiev's
work, which does not strike me as something to be
dismissed out of hand. Who is "Vaigand" ?*****
