Paolo,

I have wasted 10 minutes to compile and post my reply.
I understand your frustration, but I'm afraid responding to such
pointless and shallow voices is a waste of time.

It is sad to observe that some people occupying fairly serious
positions are spreading nonsenses around and at the same time
they present no interest in deeper consideration or at least
understanding of subjects they are discussing in details.

If a methodology is properly set, one can discuss any nonsense in
science paper and nobody should blame him. If methodology is screwed
at the beginning, even if the thesis discusses sensible subject,
it will be rubbish. I see no methodical approach in some voices from the
discussion in OGC group on LinkedIn above.

Best regards,
