I suppose that you have ever helped create a great swing? I don't know who you are or what your background is, but I would say you are probably at least 2 or 3 levels below Jack.

Edgar -
The verdict is still out on whether this is the real Charley Lau Jr. or not. You are right on in your analysis of his less than useful posts. We've been through this before. I've even gotten e-mails from 'Jr' that are nasty and provocative. Perhaps his own advice is the best - he can stay in his cage and leave the messageboards alone. He has yet to offer any advice or clarifications of his comments so he offers little to any of us.
If you need a good lau-gh (in Lau the 'gh' is silent), go to his website and try to figure out how to hit from his ten absolutes of hitting. He also takes credit for every good hitter he's ever met or his father ever taught.
