he says, "In their most general mathematical form, spinors were discovered in 1913 by the author of this work, in his investigations on the linear representations of simple groups" and has a footnote for the Cartan's original publication in french. Weyl did work on the subject, but I don't know when

Myron W, Evans is the inventor of ECE theory, a new theory of theoretical physics based on Cartan geometry. He claims: "ECE theory is based directly on Cartan gemetry , which is why it has been overwhelmingly accepted internationally by all the best universities, institutes and similar in the world.
496:? The latter does not claim to enumerate of great mathematicians; instead, it reflects in personal detail on what made Cartan's work exceptional. It also has the advantage that it was written by well-established mathematicians whose fields intersected with Cartans'. 491:
The introduction's 1999 citation for Cartan's "greatness" seems somewhat shaky as a list of "great" mathematicians. For example, Grothendieck, Serre, and Hilbert are absent from the list. Might it be better to replace this citation by one to Chern and Chevalley's

They attacked Cartan geometry because I used it in an imaginative way. Nothing as stupid as this has ever happened in science." Is there anything to these claims?

Somewhere in the article it should note that Cartan discovered the general mathematical form of spinors in 1913. --

I was thinking Cartan's article should also mention it. Maybe I'm wrong. --

he did it, all references I can find right now came far after 1913. --
