Thanks Ed, for that cite.
Rod Speed, if he's true to form, will come up with some way of
telling you that it's bull****, a lie, or a troll.

Basically, he's wedded to his intuition, which, to him, says a cellphone
ticket can't be 10,000 dollars, so, if you actually show it to him, he will
likely never believe you anyway.

What he comes up with is all sorts of fantastic fabrications (hence my
aliens manipulated the figures analogy and the WWII bomber found on moon
example) to account for the fact that he still likely won't believe your
facts.

There are two kinds of people at least:
a. Those, like me, who are wedded to facts, not opinions, but who can change
their ideas when shown the facts, and,
b. Those, like Rod Speed, who are wedded to his own opinions, and who will
likely never change his mind, facts to the contrary be damned.

Just you wait and see...

Note: A key question is how do you intelligently deal with such people?
