Both he and Duesberg still hope that Duesberg will somehow win the
Nobel prize for his cancer theory and be rehabilitated as a scientist.
Ain't gonna happen, Duesberg has destroyed his own career. When someone
gets so desperate to support their theories that they start lying about
the content of their cites in published papers, you know it's over.
Next step down the ladder is taking your case to the lay public, which
of course Duesberg has been doing now for decades with the help of
Barry - oh, sorry, I mean Celia - Farber and publishing his book for
the extreme right wing Regnery publishing house. And of course, he is
70 and the average lifespan for a male here is, I think, 72.

Oh, that's just CRUEL, Richard.
That means Dubya could live another 12 years.
Ugh.
Well, maybe folks like Petie, Rummy, Dickie (Cheney), Tony Scalia and
Clarence Uncle Thomas will beat the odds and start stroking out soon!
And maybe the 6th Circuit judges too!!

Actually George, the chances of Dubya living well beyond the age of 72
are very high. Life expectancy is estimated from birth, for someone who
has managed to survive long enough to get near the normal predicted
age, it implies they are very likely to survive well beyond it.

What a horrible thought.

I doubt that, I dont think its been Duesberg mis-representing the
contents of his sites in papers. At least thats the idea that being
presented reading Bialy's book. If you read the book maybe you can tell
me where Bialy admits this about Duesberg...?
72 is old, but duesberg looks quite young for his age, he looks 50
ish.
Or perhaps you mean that Duesberg is basically refuting his own theory
about "oncogenes" with his "aneuploidy" theory about cancer?
