Has published a few books, but only real claim of notability is being a "featured speaker" on radio programs. Doesn't appear to meet WP:BIO. I suspect a conflict of interest as well given the page creator's edits. OhNo itsJamie Talk 14:13, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

Three of the published works are hardbacks and two of them are over 400 pages each in their fifth printings. Along with being on over 100 radio stations nationwide, being selected by Oxford University Press, something that many other parties found on wikipedia cannot lay claim to, is quite significant. Some of the material produced is certainly controversial and those most anxious to criticize and delete would probably like the material removed because of their conflicts of interest.

I am new to Wikipedia; however, I wish to "follow the rules and guidelines" when these matters are brought to my attention. It is a great source of information. This page was added by someone years ago and deleted in late 2009. I simply revived the page in order to show from where some of the source information is derived as I quote on other pages within Wikipedia. If anything is self serving, my desire is for it to be removed. 68.207.213.125 (talk) 01:14, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
