Readers' questions/comments are FAKE (most likely)

The following is careful speculation based on spelling errors / typos. For the proof, with evidence that Martin Armstrong's self-congratulatory comments are fake and written by himself, go directly to:

The Fan Email Confidence Trick

For the longest time, I did not want to believe some of the people commenting on the internet, saying that Martin Armstrong may have faked a lot of the readers’ constant congratulatory comments.  I'm too nice as a person, and I always give people the benefit of doubt, Martin Armstrong included.

But when I saw the typos in the readers' comments, I instinctively knew that Martin Armstrong almost certainly faked that.  As any long-time reader of Martin Armstrong's writings know too well, Martin Armstrong is "prolific" or a big charlatan, and his writing constantly has typos here and there. Don't know why he doesn't use a spell-checker, but my best guess is that he doesn't bother at all. His attitude towards spelling most likely resembles his way of doing math. 8.6 is the same as 8.615, etc.. Words spelled close enough are good for him. Typos in his writing are simply his personal signatures.  Here is an example of his own writing with terrible typo quoted from Greenspan Sees Inflation or Stagflation? There is a Difference!:

The traditional view of inflation is DEMAND INFLATION where a shortage in supply will result in hire prices.

So when his reader writes in What Books Are There on Monetary History? (quote):
My son is studying US History this year in 8th grade. You have a lot on your plate and appreciate what you have been doing for us. What is the best book on the monetary history of the US?
Keep up the hood work and see you in November.
So please tell me, WHO in their right mind will NOT see this typo of "hood work", except perhaps someone who is actually typing it out, but not seeing it, or just too busy not to correct the typo?

Once you accept the fact that 99.9% of the people who READ the above quote can see the blatant typo, now the second question is that WHY didn't Martin Armstrong see that?  And if Martin Armstrong sees that, he should have obviously corrected it for the benefit of internet readers.

The more logical conclusion is that Martin Armstrong didn't see that or didn't bother to correct the typo, because he WROTE that himself AND made a typo.

The other potential alternative is that Martin Armstrong simply re-typed the Reader's question, and made a typo in the process.  But WHY didn't he simply cut & paste the entire paragraph from Reader's email?  There is obviously no plausible explanation for that, which again greatly diminish the possibility for this hypothesis.

If I were Martin Armstrong, I would always cut & paste reader’s email directly to reproduce exactly readers’ sentiment. But then, having somebody sent in such a short email stating hood work, and expects others to understand that as good work is a little beyond me.  Apparently, Martin Armstrong perfectly understands that he is doing "hood work"!

So one such typo occurrence is saying a lot for such unlikely event.  But then, it happens twice and more.  Here is another example from Gold to be or Not to Be:
QUESTION: Marty; I won a bet against a goldbug. He bet gold would soar and the dollar would crash October 1st because of the SDR and said you would be exposed as a fraud. I won the $100 bet. I tried to bet an ounce of gold, but he would [not] do that.
The boldfaced not is missing.  Okay, that was relatively innocuous.

Here is another Reader's example from The Path of Order Rather than Chaos Leads to Understanding :
COMMENT:  If gravity is the most powerful force in the universe than the logic would collapse ECM to and that is not how reality is as you have discovered in the ECM.

Gravity / Government / the weakest force in the universe, Gravity is opposite Electromagnetic Majority people are opposite government
the more powerful Majority in the Market will always create the trend, not the weaker gravity / government that is the basic tenet of the ECM and the Electric Universe This is also why the Sovereign Debt Crisis will bring Gov. Deb to 0


Time is simply the observation of ratios between multiple series of events and is the only Constant, the past can not be changed or manipulated.

I can accurately predict future events, by observing past events, and noting the ratios of events in time 8.6(9) year frequency with the 1.075(1.3) year short leg and the 2.15(2.6) (1.3 +2.6=3.9) year Long leg to volatility wave/ change in trend PI 3.1415(3.2) This allows me to have confidence in where I am in time and to accurately predict future events with consistent success.

Tesla said, “pay attention to the 3, 6, and 9 and think frequency, vibration, energy”. He saw the world as it was, rather than how he wanted it to be, he was aware of the principle of the ECM, as the Maya and other ancient civilizations.

The typo above was the boldfaced Deb, which should be Debt.  But what strikes me the most is that IF nobody tells me that it was written by a reader, I would have said that Martin Martin Armstrong wrote it for sure, since I don't think anybody has the capacity in blah-blah on all the "magic numbers" while linking to physics, historical figures, and economics, all together, without taking any break in breath.

Here is another example of Reader's request from Student Loan Petition to White House:
REQUEST: Dear Mr. Armstrong: I am trying to discharge student loan in the bankruptcy court, and it is very tough battle. I am in the situation that it is all out war with the U.S. Department of Education. I have been reading your blog for more than a year now and found that we have common grounds. I agree that we have to make the student loan dischargeable again in the bankruptcy court. I humbly and respectfully request for your help to promote my petition to the White House that We the people should ask the Congress to repeal 11 USC § 523(a)(8), which the statute states that “unless excepting such [student loan] debt from discharge under this paragraph would impose an undue hardship on the debtor and the debtor’s dependents.” This is the petition I created recently: You now have 30 days to get 99,999 signatures in order for your petition to be reviewed by the White House. Until your petition has 150 signatures, it will only be available from the following URL and will not be publicly viewable on the Open Petitions section of We the People:
If you click on that petition link, you get to the petition page:
The economics of higher education are in crisis: tuitions are soaring,with increases in college and school costs outpacing inflation students are exitingcollege and graduate school more indebted than ever hastransformed student loans into the largest source of consumer indebtednessafter mortgages. To make matters worse, all of this comes as the value of higher education is being called into question. With returns sinking and tuitions, indebtedness, and defaults surging, the need for higher education financial reform is pressing. Students are unlikely to be able to repay, and § 523(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code exacerbates the effects of such burdensome debt by allowing private and federal student loans to be discharged only upon a showing of "Undue Hardship." Please sign this petition.
WHY would anyone submit a petition with 3 typos in them, without carefully reviewing everything before submission, ESPECIALLY when this petition is so important to this person?  The person who wrote the text for this petition apparently is very familiar with laws knowing what exactly is
Repeal 11 USC § 523(a)(8)
when probably 95+% of the population (myself included) doesn't even know what USC stands for.


This person is most likely a law school student, a person in the legal industry, OR ...Martin Armstrong whose father was a lawyer, and who defended on his own for the SEC lawsuit.  So there are the two most logical scenarios that I can think of:

1. A person in the legal industry wrote this petition: however, ANY people in the legal industry knows so well that every single word on the legal document is extremely important, and it is truly un-imaginable for me to understand how such person could make that many typos on such an important document for him.
2. Martin Armstrong pretended to be the reader, and pretended to be the good guy who cares so much about the students in debt, and wanted to show all these "good characteristics", and wrote the petition himself.  Unfortunately, again and again, Martin Armstrong never bothers about typos, and he doesn't have time to review anything that he writes, and if there were 3 typos, so be it!

Okay, it really took me the above examples from "readers" for me to finally persuade myself that all of the seemingly congratulatory readers' comments in awe, and all sounding too similar, were all made up by Martin Armstrong.  I don't know about you, but you can THINK for yourself.

Lightening do strike.  And for it to strike twice at the same place, and then three times???  What is the probability of a rare event happening once, and then twice, and then three times?  THINK for yourself.

The above examples are what I documented.  There are at least one more example, but I didn't document everything, ever since I convinced myself.  If you find other examples, please feel free to add to the comment section, or send them to me.  Thanks!


Note: The above is careful speculation. I do actually have the proof, the evidence that the self-congratulatory comments are fake. See: The Fan Email Confidence Trick
