My mummy always told me that it is rude to criticise people behind their back when you can do so to their face :-)
In any case, when making the TED ED video I added in my own angle on the manuscript (very obliquely) because that is what the TED ED people wanted me to do!

Okay: it's a little bold to add in your own research when it's hardly taken seriously by most other researchers. Is that better? I mean, I said it on a public forum, so I'm hardly talking behind your back. Indeed, I would guess it's far kinder than coming to your website to post such thoughts.
The truth is, I'm a linguistic researcher, like you, yet I've read your work and am not interested in building upon it. There are too many assumptions and nothing really solid. I could go into the problems at length but at this stage it would be rather pointless. I don't see anybody referencing it any more so who would I be arguing against?

Ok, let's agree to differ. But you know I have an open forum so you could always come to that and ask me instead of speaking about me in the third person.
You say you have read my work and you are not interested in building on it - your choice. But a large number of people have discussed it and referenced it. So far my site has had over 500K page views in three years and over 280K unique visits (i.e. different visitors, not including repeats), so it is clear that some are interested. Every week I am asked about my work - yesterday I was invited to contribute to a significant volume being planned for next year, so that keeps me busy enough.
As for your own work, I confess to my shame that I have never come across it and never seen it referenced either. I hope to see you make some interesting breakthrough soon.
