I am glad that Marcus Schaefer has now withdrawn his comments on what 
he previously said was 'the most surprising claim' Ivor 
Grattan-Guinness made in his book.  He had dishonored one of the most 
productive and respected figures in the recent history of 
mathematics.  For a record of his achievements, check his website 
(http://mubs.mdx.ac.uk/Staff/Personal_pages/Ivor2/).
