This person's name came up on another list - is what the writer says correct? Is this the mysterious JL Hudson?
However, I do wish to comment directly about David I. Theodoropoulos. He has
written a number of essays over the years, and has written a book called
"Invasion Biology: Critique of a Pseudoscience." His pseudonym is JL Hudson, and
he runs the JL Hudson Seedbank that he bills as "A Public Access Seedbank." I
would make several points about this author:
1. His seed bank is excellent and innovative, and is truly public access. You can send in seeds and get credit with which to order other seeds. 2. He is wonderfully knowledgeable about plants, seeds, plant uses and other
facets of plants, including patenting issues.
3. As near as I can tell his work is not scientific (I'm putting on my
botanist hat here). By this I mean he does not publish experimental results in
peer-reviewed journals of scientific societies or other accepted peer-reviewed
outlets. He has published non experimental type manuscripts (essays), and he is
a member of many scientific societies
The rest of the post is not relevant but I've never before heard anything revealing about the identity of this person whom I always think of as a bit like the Wizard of Oz....
