What does this have to do with anything? MS is multiple sclerosis. Hawking had ALS. In fact, people with MS only have about 7 years shorter life expectancy than people without it.

Looks like Sterling doesn't know his ALS from a hole in the ground ;-)

Well, it's not so important. As long as he can hire a super recognizer for a thousand bucks...

I would think AI facial recognition technology would beat super-recognizers (and expose all replacement hoaxes that left photographic evidence). And cost less than a thousand bucks.

Well, I didn't know about the "super-recognizers" back when your man, Unz, refused to pay off on that 10k wager regarding Betty Ong. Surely, if we had a "super-recognizer" to point out that the black girl in the high school yearbook labeled as "Betty Ong" was not the same person as the Chinese woman named "Betty Ong" who died on 9/11...

But, since, it is true that I am not a "super-recognizer" involved and no AI facial recognition technology was

involved either, Unz, quite reasonably, refused to pay off the wager.

Yeah, obviously I am not qualified to judge that the black girl in the yearbook and the Chinese woman from 9/11 are different people, so Unz quite reasonably refused to pay off on the wager. So, okay, the man is tough, but fair. And he was putting out a plausible hypothesis: Yes, Betty Ong, the Chinese flight stewardess, was in her high school yearbook, but, okay, she was just kinda black at the time... it happens...

Messrs Barrett & Harwood have many great qualities, but evaluating the virtues of Miles Mathis VS Ron Unz ain't one: don't take his word for it, check 'em out yourself.

Yes he died and was replaced by at least one maybe two different lookalikes. Miles Mathis exposed this.
