Perhaps, before you post such articles, you should post some detailing the origins scenario you are attempting to defend. Then, perhaps, you should present some reason why your observational aspects lead to that scenario. If all you can do is present observational aspects consistent with a non-natural hypothesis, rather than inconsistent with a natural hypothesis, then you must show why your scenario is preferable to the currently held majority opinion. That is, you must if you are trying to be scientific. If you are among those who are trying to use politics to push your religion on the rest of us, do let us know, so we adjust our response accordingly. -- Michael Ward, NCAR/SCD UUCP: {hplabs,nbires,brl-bmd,seismo,menlo70,stcvax}!hao!ward ARPA: hplabs!hao!sa!ward@Berkeley BELL: 303-497-1252 USPS: POB 3000, Boulder, CO 80307
