Every person alive has 'discovered' the "Galactic Habitable Zone". Nothing new here!
and was issued a $58,000 grant from the John Templeton Foundation that paid 25 percent of his salary at Iowa State for three years. I pulled in more than that as a graduate student. No big deal. $58K over six years is less than 10k per year.
Let’s try something a little ‘new here‘… Instead of spouting off more unfounded statements try to learn something about the GHZ either here or here.

You missed the point entirely, but beyond this, you conveniently and intentionally omitted:
Dr Gonzalez authored nearly 70 peer-reviewed papers (21 papers since 2002), co-authored a major college level astronomy textbook, his work led to the discovery of two new planets, his research was featured in Science, Nature, and the cover of Scientific American.
Now, you stated, ‘Mr. G contributed almost zero to the department in six years.’ I stated ‘I do believe Dr. Gonzales has been treated unfairly due to preconceived beliefs of others.’ Due you realize that you are merely confirming ‘my’ statement?
