Gentlemen, you see the constant provocations addressed to me, which are clearly intended to spark an intemperate response -- one which will then "justify" complaints to the moderators to pull this embarrassing thread. Observe that I do not rise to the bait. Nor should any of you. Do not be distracted. Don't be tempted into any flame wars which will provide an excuse to get this thread pulled. Permit no diversions! Stay the course! We want an answer from g3k:
HOW OLD IS THE EARTH?

Nice concise summary of a certain poster's game plan.

Observe that I do not rise to the bait.

As I sat here in my lazy chair this morning, sipping my coffee and perusing this thread, I stopped for a moment at your post and read it a couple of times. I came to the conclusion that it may be one of the most pathetic and futile attempts to garner support I have ever seen. You should be refuting, not falling back and calling for help! Do you even realize how badly your theory has been torn up on this thread? Your best bet would be to do the opposite (which I have seen the evo camp do before as well) and TRY to get this thread pulled. If I were you, I'd move on to something else. Just my $.02. Now I am off for a quick round of golf and when I return, we'll see if you took my advice. Cheers! MM
