Hi Glenn,
I just visited Aberdeen when the Gifford conference
was held there two weeks ago. I got the chance to listen to lectures
by Paul Davies, Michael Behe, William Lane Craig, Richard Swinburne
and many others.
It is a nice city and the area around is also nice. I think they call Aberdeen
the Granite city - and that may be true because almost all the buildings
seem to have been built with Granite.
I work in a small geological company that is very much involved in
research on the geology of the North Sea. I live and work in Stavanger which is
called the oil capital in Norway like Aberdeen is in the UK.
Aberdeen is almost as north as Stavanger, and I can confirm that during
the winter it is dark almost 18 hours a day, BUT in the summer we have
these long sunny evenings, and that is so great. Stavanger is not far away
and there are at least 2 ASA members here (incl. me), and both are
members of the ASA discussion group - just to let you know if you ever get
to Stavanger and have time to meet some ASA-folks.
I hope you will stay on the list - from Scotland.
Regards from Inge
