He's only made this particular 616F claim only 4 times and 2 additional timeshad different variations of what he thought it meant. 17 times at Graham Hancock and about a dozen at other places. In all cases he was informed about his error - and the reason for his error - he obviously just ignores it, so an hour from now, a day, a week, a month or perhaps a year he'll make exactly same claim again.
