Large sections of this article sound like an advertisement for LePoint. First and foremost, the term 'Mathaphobia' is mentioned several times as if it were a widely researched and proven medical condition when in fact a Google search would yield mostly nothing but results related to her website and books. There are no actual scientific studies regarding it. Same thing applies to all mentions of her theories, which are presented as matter of fact and seem to only serve the purpose of plugging her book (ex: "created the Trianbrain Theory of Relativity in her self-help book, Answers Unleashed: The Science of Unleashing Your Brain’s Power in 2018.", and the entire last paragraph of the Career section). The only thing missing from the previous quote is an Amazon link. Also, a Google search for "Trianbrain Theory of Relativity" yields NO results. Puffery is also an issue (ex: "Rising to triumph above the rubble"). All in all, due to these issues, a COI template seems to be appropriate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.202.242.28 (talk) 10:58, 1 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
An article in Huffington Post, that I have not yet figured out how to add correctly, says that Ms LaPoint has two degrees in mathematics and worked as a Safety person in some NASA support room.
[1]
As another former (contractor) NASA safety support person, her role was far smaller than she claims here. As we saw in the Challenger accident, the opinions of contractor safety people are not taken very seriously. She says that, thirteen years AFTER the Challenger accident, she was investigating the technical events behind the Challenger accident? Does she mean that she read about the results of the investigations of others?
The article claims that she helped design rockets for 28 missions, since she was not in a design group that cannot be true. This appears to be associated with her claim that she supported 28 Shuttle missions - as a Safety person.
