 What's there to comment?

There is the pressing question of why Andrew Yee forwarded something to sci.astro that is so obviously Kookdom "science" from the lunatic fringe. I will be charitable and assume that he did not read the abstract. But I'd love to know which peer reviewed journal accepted this paper!

None, surely? It's an ArXiv.org e-print. I've seen the "rigid sun" interpretation of the TRACE results on web sites, but this is the first "paper" I've seen.

Sorry to follow up my own post, but the web site in question is Michael Mozina's <http://www.thesurfaceofthesun.com/> (I found it via an ad on the Heavens Above site), and all I can say is "you ain't seen nothing yet" :-)
Here's a nice example

"The neon layer that composes the penumbral filaments is the layer our eyes can see. This layer has another VERY important function, specially to COOL the lower layers. Neon is used as a cryogenic refrigerant because of its incredible "cooling" abilities."

Looking at Oliver Manuel's site at <http://web.umr.edu/~om/> he's been Professor Emeritus since 2000. Would anyone like to comment on <http://web.umr.edu/~om/picpages/compsun.html>?
