do they actually talk to any real experts, say someone who knows something about information theory, or physics, or optics,
no they find Ken Rockwell, who runs a "Popular" web page. They probably used Google hit statistics, maybe "I'm feeling lucky".
I wonder how many of the recent hits on his page were from incredulous photographers looking at a virtual train wreck and then
posting derisive comments in photography forums.

Maybe the transcript was a bit heavily edited, but there are SO many things odd with what he said. I kinda reads like his one-page essay on how to do everything in Photoshop.
On a related note, I wonder if he read this week's Luminous Landscape essay about RAW.

I can understand why mankind hasn't given up war. During a war you get to drive tanks through the sides of buildings and shoot foreigners - two things that are usually frowned on during peacetime.
