Carl Elliott admits I am better than him
December 9th, 2011
In an interview with Misha Angrist last week, Carl Elliott finally acknowledged the existence of his brother’s website. Here is my long-awaited response:
Well, it’s certainly pleasing to hear, after 14 months of tanking book sales and worldwide ridicule, that Carl acknowledges his brother’s website (an overnight viral sensation and the most widely read bioethics website of 2011) is “much better than (his) book”. That’s mighty sweet of him to say. I guess I’ll take any compliment I can get, even one dripping with false modesty and condescending fakery, in lieu of that check he never wrote.
