Wang, Z. (2005). Response to comment by R. M. W. Musson [on “Comparison between probabilistic seismic hazard analysis and flood frequency analysis”]. Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union 86: doi: 10.1029/2005EO390005. issn: 0096-3941.

Musson's comment on our article is a good example of the inability of PSHA proponents to communicate clearly and directly to anyone but themselves just what it is that they are doing <Hanks and Cornell, 1994, p. I/1-1>. Musson's <2004> comment on an earlier paper by Wang et al. <2003> was addressed in a response by Wang et al. <2004>. However, it seems that Musson is still sure he is right and Wang et al. are all wrong when he says, I pointed out <Musson, 2004> the fallacies in a paper by Wang et al. <2003>. These errors are now repeated by Wang and Ormsbee <2005>, who refer back to Wang et al. <2003> but not to Musson <2004>. Now Musson is trying to impose his self-righteousness on the whole scientific community by asking Eos not to publish any paper that contains a point of view different from his.
