It seems that Korff with the words "good old 'Jerome' in the Netherlands" is referring to me. Korff doesn't know me personally, we've never had a conversation, and his remark that I'm an "unobjective, religious, and fanatical" Meier believer is groundless and insultive and obviously serves to discredit me and my work. As you all probably know, Korff promotes the idea that the Meier case is a hoax and claims that the proof is in his book 'Spaceships of the Pleiades: The Billy Meier case'. I've taken a close look at his book, in order to independently verify Korff's claims. Result: the book does raise some interesting questions but no irrefutable evidence for a hoax is present in his book, contrary to what Korff claims. What's more important: Korff's book obviously is biased and his research is anything but scientific as evidenced by the errors, faulty reasoning, unsupported claims and omissions of relevant data in his book. More info about that can be found at: http://www.bart.nl/~edzmath/start1. http://www.bart.nl/~edzmath/starta. (The second URL is for people with a browser which can't cope with JavaScript.) I will take Meier's or Korff's claims and explanations for granted _only_ if they are able to support their claims and explanations with _irrefutable_evidence_. Korff obviously can't back his Meier hoax claim with irrefutable evidence and thus shouldn't promote the hoax hypothesis as proven fact and discriminate the people who are studying the case because 'it is a proven fact that it is a hoax'.
