Clue No. 7: Important one. Usually, these people have no formal training in any science, nothing at all. You will find no mention of any degrees or even classes they have taken, nor any actual textbooks or books they have read. Of course, there are numerous exceptions to this, like Nassim Haramein, who has formal training as a physicist and has presented a couple of talks in respectable conferences.

Clue No. 8: As a corollary to Clue No. 7, there will probably be no publications whatsoever in any respectable journal, or even a popular science magazine, or something. Some of them may have self-published, seeing as noone took them seriously. Who was it with relativity+ or similar, that had self-published?
