One of the differences I preceive to be b/w scientists and creationist, is that of willingness to change a viewpoint. Is their anything that would/could convince you that your viewpoint on YE crationism is wrong? How much evidence would it take? What specific types of evidence could change your mind? I fear that no amount of evidence could convince many YE creationists (not necessarily you) because their beliefs ARE based on faith wen it comes down to it.

I will admit that belief in creation ultimately boils down to faith. I could be persuaded that there is a gap between verse 1 & 2 of Genesis, but not in creation. I have also not seen evidence of any remarkable flexibility in the minds of scientists. Short of God coming down and appearing before them saying "listen guys, you are way off base here" they would continue to cling to the column. I have also witnessed first-hand scientists who refuse to even admit that evolution, being a theory, is not a proven fact. It is a hypothesis that some believe makes sense. But, it is not a proven fact. Evolutionists believe evolution, on faith according to what has been drilled into their heads, and will absolutely refuse to admit the possibility of a creator. Some have, however, abandoned evolution theory and become creationists. Some have even become young earthers. Their writings on why they changed should interest all since they are clearly swimming upstream from the tide of conventional thought.
