If I had had the good fortune to be named "Mike Rowe" I don't think I could possibly have resisted naming the site MikeRoweSoft, either.

Aaaaahahahahaha... man. Yeah, I remember back when I was a bachelorette, one of the bachelor guys living in the building said to another, "OMG, she makes herself food! Like, cooking!! Like, mac 'n' cheese, in the oven and everything! Gourmet!!" And I thought he was just being silly or sarc...

Yeah, I know. I kinda wished we could have finished it--I really enjoyed talking with you, and Rican did mess it up. By contrast, it's almost too bad Rican isn't here this time around. I very well might have paid money to watch him and meathead duke it out. http://www.descentbb.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

Yeah, much as I'm really fond of the guy and all... I like the place better now. It's cleaner and easier to talk.

<font face="Arial" size="3">Like Dracona said: Any dogma, dictate, concoction, legend, myth, science, book, religion, CD-ROM, or Santaclaus-had-a-red-nosed-reindeer tale to explore this point about spirituality is Good ! </font> Whoa, whoa, whoa. I did not say that, and I certai...

It is very true that some people will always believe in evolution. And in the same vein, what Jesus Freak said--that some people wouldn't believe in God if they saw a miracle with their own eyes--is also true. Consider what happened with the big bang. For a long time, it had been supposed that the u...

Hehe... man, I remember you being way proud that that particular design for your site still looked okay at some obscene resolution like 300 x 240 or something. lol... Man... and now I miss wolf, too. And all the places that are gone and will never exist again. Old IDL. Old DBB. Old Kali 682. Man. Th...

Yeah. I actually just finished reading that book yesterday, oddly enough. http://www.descentbb.net/ubb/smile.gif Behe's argument that irreducible complexity is a block to direct evolution is a good one, but beware if you think that'll kill evolutionary theory. There are a few ways around it. The mos...

Box? What box? You mean Darwin's Black Box?

Oh wow. I remember that. That was back when I was helping you work on your web page! I see a link to my lair there, too--under the hosted sites.

This is stupid, picky, and nobody cares, but for the life of me I can't restrain myself, so... <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial">quote:</font><HR><font face="Arial" size="3"> The change in volume of a system... <font face="Symbol">D</font>V = (...

I thought it was triangulation from a couple of known points on the ground--I can't imagine someone would climb up to the peak carrying surveying equipment just to measure it! Though I guess they might fly...

In creation/evolution debates, do beware of unwarranted extrapolations--since the subject matter is so old, the temptation to make them is huge! This about the sun, I think, is one of them. Even assuming that the sun has shrunk .1% per century for the past four centuries, it isn't fair to assume tha...
