My stating the fact that Gould was dead when both articles (Bradley's and Dawkin's) were written is an ad hominem??

NO!! Now see how things go awry. I meant that Dawkins Ad Hominem was a doozy since Gould could not be there to defend whether he had read the book or not. I have not characterized you in any way, that would be Ad Hominem on my part.
