"Not to be ugly, but before this whole "Expelled" thing came about I'd had no idea what an absolute moron Ben Stein was"

Hmm, can top that. Before this whole "Expelled" thing came about no-one outside a small TV audience in the US had any idea about the hell Ben Stein was. As far as most of Europe is concerned it's just that Ferris Bueller bit-part guy waffling some unintelligible fantasy nonsense and offending a bunch of people by trivialising the Holocaust.

Give it a month, maybe two. No-one will even remember this film ever existed, except Mr Stein who will remember it as the last time he ever got hired...

The excerpt there seems pretty well flawed to me, as discussed in the comments above, but I'm no more than an amateur enthusiast about these things. A more serious problem is the title. Beautiful people have more daughters, eh? The author has obviously never been to Glasgow, or the UK in general...
