What follows is a comment that I posted at Intel Research Blogs in response to a recent article by Anwar Ghuloum titled Unwelcome Advice. I was actually replying to another commenter, Falde, who is promoting Erlang for parallel programming. Since Erlang is back in the news lately, I felt it would be appropriate to let my readers know what I feel about the suitability of Erlang as a solution to the parallel programming problem.

Rebel Science is the latest incarnation of http://www.rebelscience.org/, authored by Louis Savain. He is, by his own admission, a "crackpot and a crank" (see first bullet of: http://rebelscience.blogspot.com/2007/10/who-am-i-what-are-my-credentials.html). His articles tend to sound convincing upon first read, but don't hold up under close scrutiny.
