There's a glaring hole in Phil's story. He talks about the origins of the name of the Prometheus project and makes it clear that he introduced Craig to the Prometheus story. According to his story this was in June 2008. Except Craig wrote a thesis in 2003 on the origins of various creation myths that referenced the Prometheus story extensively. So clearly at least this part of the story is pure fantasy.
