Cjeck out the latest issue of The Sciences, published by the New York
Academy of Science.  There are a number of fine articles, including one
by Anthony Peratt of Los Alamos which discusses how the universe could
have come to be the way it is without postulating a Big Bang.  This is a
far cry from sayong that it ``proves'' the Big Bang never occurred.  If
there is enough interest, I will summarize this article for the net.
The article is titled, ``Not With a Bang -- The Universe May Have
Evolved from a Vast Sea of Plasma.''  One quotation is worth including:
``Many physicists believe the time is fast approaching when the big bang
must prove its worth anew or step out of the limelight.''
