I wish you were right .
But I think he is smart enough, though not emotionally mature or fulfilled.
The conferences I've googled are for the most part filled with
other crackpots though in different areas and I have the feeling
that they will always accept a "PhD" in their quest to appear legitimate.
He shares the podium with crystal worshippers, UFO abductees and other
wackos, which on the surface since the participants are never described
makes his resume appear more legitimate.
It's your time and I wish you the best. I hope I'm wrong and that you
somehow
enlighten him but I must confess that my confidence level is not high.
