Lame, I'm sorry but I don't accept his conclusion at all.

I think the word "Lame" should be reserved for responding to an essay on language, history, human genetics, sports, and culture with a one-word sentence that disagrees without reason or evidence. Lame.

Ok, how about expounding this way: Unevidenced, unfalsifiable hypothesis presented as an explanation, with all the rigor of an armchair Olympics viewer armed with a 6 pack. Lame.

I thought it was somewhat far-fetched, but I wouldn't go so far as to say it was lame - it's an interesting idea at least.
