Or read Stephen J. Gould's books. = =Or look in sci.skeptic. This thread surfaces occasionally there. If you have access to the TALK groups, *DON'T* look in sci.skeptic. Then the thread shows up there, we mostly wait for Chris (who subscribes to both TALK.ORIGINS and SCI.SKEPTIC) to post parts of his FAQ from TALK.ORIGINS. The thread *REALLY* belongs in TALK.ORIGINS, *NOT* SCI.SKEPTIC.

That's what I get paid for. My understanding of astronomy is purely at the amateur level (or below). So unless what I'm saying is directly related to VAX/VMS, don't hold me or my organization responsible for it. If it IS related to VAX/VMS, you can try to hold me responsible for it, but my organization had nothing to do with it.
