Walt,

BTW, many of us are also 99.9% certain that "Socrates" is Jonathan Sarfati
(or So-farti, if you like.) It's a shame how he's treated the most
gracious Charleen Lohman, with whom I've exchanged several private
e-mails. She is a bright person who is active in her church (of mostly
YECs -- it's C&MA) and honestly seeking truth.

In God's Peace,

Roger
