it's not that hard

With minimal sophistication (the pdf button in Word, the converter in a copy machine), one can make an electronic copy. Numerous websites offer free hosting. Most of my papers can be downloaded from the site I made myself - http://earthweb.ess.washington.edu/vidale

I haven't been to the UW library since I arrived in Seattle, nearly all literature is online one way or the other online.

I have to say, if making your work available is too hard, or defending your ideas to reviewers, what chance is there to properly code up the deformation of a thermal perturbation?

And the claim that because one guy 100 years was partially right (and he was a well-published atmospheric scientist, internationally famous in his specialty), therefore any wild idea deserves its day is a stretch.
