Well where's the proof that he created it? I'll happily stand corrected.

I just think that if we're going to attack someone, it's probably a good idea to use facts that are true and not made up (it's likely that op just misremembered the details) otherwise it just puts doubt on any further valid points. I've no interest in defending the guy but I do think we should try and keep our facts straight when we criticise someone.
