The group you are looking for is rec.humor! Follow-ups to alt.flame] In article <9477@shemp.UCLA.EDU> troly@CS.UCLA.EDU (Bret Jolly) gives us a defense of Flat Earth theory and tries to show that his arguement is better than that given by Creationists. That is almost true... I can appreciate a finely crafted arguement, Bret. But you err. It is easier to prove that the earth is round than to prove that it is flat. Next time try argueing in defense of phlogistons, ether wind, or fluidum vitae... Those are far more amusing subjects. -- Oleg Kiselev -- oleg@quad1.quad.com -- {...!psivax|seismo!gould}!quad1!oleg HASA, "A" Division DISCLAIMER: I don't speak for my employers.
