Ironically, as everyone sufficiently interested in math to be reading this page probably already knows, since mathematicians love to gossip about their colleagues, while one might think that symplectic geometry might be free of controversy, Anatoly Timofeevich Fomenko is author of a well known book who is also an accomplished artist (somewhat like William Blake, only more chaotic) and a well known pseudohistory crank. I didn't mention this in the article because I really would not want to suggest even in a stub that the most interesting aspect of Sternberg's career has been his involvement in debunking the so-called "bible codes". ---CH 08:55, 1 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
