Yes, I'm replying to a placemarker. Only to say that this thread represents a truly amazing evolution of the discussions on FR about evolution. It has become a good-natured, wide ranging, and thoroughly entertaining exchange of ideas, with just the right amount of occasional rant to keep it from becoming a campfire kumbaya (owing in part, no doubt, to the lack of blue spew). It's a great place to take a break during the drudgery of the work day. I hope this represents the future of these discussions.

I have to say I'm sorry for the occasional personal shots I have taken at the creationists but everytime I point out facts or post arguments that contain scientifically tested material they start name calling. Mainly it was blue boy but even the last day when I posted I got attitude and I was being nice :)

So do we all. This thread has been just fine. But I fear that with the re-appearance of two posters who have been absent the last couple of days, things may take a sharp turn for the worse. Your first clue will be the sudden appearance of a certain color in the thread. I hope I'm wrong.
