Pim,

Thank you for this contribution. I am aware that many before me have, in
their enthusiasm to uphold the Word of God, made ill-informed and
extravagant claims - and a number still do, as you have pointed out.
Much of Panin's work is known to me, and I am aware of the flaws in his
procedures. However, we must be careful, even there, not to throw out
the baby with the bathwater!

With respect, until you absorb the miraculous circumstances attending my
findings, you will fail to see that they are of a different genre from
those you quote, and are not so readily refuted.
