There is no backref, but the Magic Smoke¹ article to this one.

I've always quite liked both topics as seemingly reasonable explanations for observed behaviour, there is something both quaint and fun about them from a modern eye.

I saw a talk at the RIGB a few years ago where the speaker took a funny walk through things that had been pushed there over the centuries, and how our understanding has changed since. It was hugely entertaining, and very informative on the process of progress. [secretly hoping someone finds a recording and posts a link]
