So I found these articles by some guy that apparently was quite popular years ago in the electronics world: Don Lancaster.
However I have found most of his columns in magazines to be content-free, typo-filled, hyperbolic, self-aggrandizing prattle. A self-appointed "guru"? Really? 
Seems a pretty good description of you, except you haven't written anything other than some offensive forum posts.
Everything was either utterly simple or completely change the world forever, yet I can't find anything he's actually done. A few publications for circuits in the 1970s and a book or two of basically republished data books and he's been coasting on that for decades?
You obviously did not look very hard if you only found one or two books. None of which are republished data books. Don certainly did include the important part of the datasheets for the devices referenced in the books. Otherwise they would have not been usable by many of his readers. Data books were *very* hard to get if you didn't work for a large company. And people who did get them for free had a long list of people who wanted their old copy. I still have the hand me down data books I was given. Many of the devices are no lonAnd "book on demand" has changed the publishing world as did PostScript.
And what's his obsession with PostScript?
In the day when a small microcontroller cost several hundred dollars, Don was showing how you could use your LaserWriter to do the job. Ever hear of a "parallel port"? That was how you normally drove a printer and the parallel port on the LaserWriter was bidirectional. So the range of things you could do with it was limited only by the number of pins (not problem for Don to expand with a bit of TTL or CMOS logic) and your ability to fit everything into memory.
And if you wrote raw PostScript you could print anything you wanted to using an ordinary text editor. So I printed business cards with a small PostScript file that were of professional quality and cut them with a paper knife. Even today I sometimes use raw PostScript for the simple reason it is far less work than any other option. And it doesn't cost anything extra. Apple wanted you to dump your Apple II and buy a MacIntosh. So Don showed that you could do everything with an Apple II.
But more importantly, PostScript provided a *device independent* means of printing complex pages. That was *not* possible before PostScript was developed. If you ever had to write a printer driver or even configure a printer for which you had a driver in the 70's and early 80's you might be able to understand.
If you told a professional chef that his plate layout was not very good or he got the recipe wrong you got precisely the answer you deserved. At least, short of picking you up by the scruff of the neck and throwing you out the door.
Aside from the general attitude, your biggest problem is you are ignorant and lazy. As was amply demonstrated by your first post. If you were not ignorant you would have understood about PostScript. And if you weren't lazy you would have learned very quickly that Don was a very prolific writer.
However, your biggest problem is you crave attention so much you seek it even if it results in people taking a very negative view of you.
But, no worries, mate. You'll be gone soon, though perhaps not soon enough to suit some of us.
Edit: I just checked Don's website and he is clearly alive and active at least as of yesterday so the "godman" of our youth is still with us.
Just for fun, here's the text of his 2 November post which for some reason did not appear when I checked his website yesterday.
The "anvil test" for camp coffee...
If the anvil sinks, it it too weak.
If the anvil floats, it is just right.
If the anvil dissolves, it is too strong.
Which I think says a lot about the "Guru's Lair" name.
