I regret that I won't be able to contribute more than occasionally
to this newsgroup for the better part of the coming year.  My
spare time is going to be taken up with work on a new edition of
my introductory astronomy textbook.  One important addition will 
be a section on pseudoscience, including Creationism, prompted by 
my experiences here.

I am grateful to all of those who have engaged in discussion on
this topic, on both sides of the issue.  I have learned a great deal,
and been prompted to do a lot of reading I otherwise would not have
done.  I hope I have not flamed anyone too badly.  I apologize
if I have.  I will continue to read net.origins as time permits.

Thanks to one and all who have made this an interesting experience.
