Regarding the VMS foldouts, Weiler writes:
Wrong. Completely untrue. I'm not even going to list all the medieval examples. Many have already been linked in various threads on the forum. The physician's foldout is a classic example, but there are many more. It wasn't super common, but it's completely false to say it cannot be found in the Middle Ages.
You know... reading this is like reading the Tucker/Janick book. I can't get through 10 paragraphs without finding sentence after sentence full of fundamental and truly glaring errors.
