Well, we've been through the alphabet twice. But we have still managed to overlook some pretty significant lunatics. We have no entry on Harry Jackson, or Kevin Swanson, Buster Wilson, Gina Miller or Judith Reisman. And other wingnuts have risen to prominence too late for us to notice them when we passed their place in the alphabet - Jim Garrow is an obvious example.
Among peddlers of woo and pseudoscience the most striking omission is perhaps Vani Hari, the Food Babe, who also rose to fame too late for us, but Brian Berman, Kelly Brogan and Bob Sears are some relatively significant omissions as well. A round 3 would inevitably encompass plenty of less well-known figures, but there are enough big fish left to justify doing it, we think.
Some commenters have suggested broadening our view. We agree that a Canadian edition would be worth doing sometime in the future (after all, we've already cheated our way to some Canadians, such as Denyse O'Leary, in addition to several Canadian-Americans, including Rosalie Bertell and Ravi Zacharias), and British and Australian lists are also worth considering (again, we've already covered a few). We have also considered the suggestion that we go global, but we find it hard to provide reliable coverage of loons who primarily do their lunacy in languages we are unable to read; it'll have to wait, at least, though at least a Scandinavian or perhaps German edition may be worth considering.
