I thought that the following was a reasonable assessment regarding the index fossil method of determining geological layers.

I thought that those biologists who have been annoyed by my constant harping over the fact that biologists would benefit greatly by using some of the tools of systems engineering would enjoy this rebuke from one of their own...

This article is a condensation of an appendix in the math professor's recent book: http://www.spectator.org/dsp_article.asp?art_id=9128

Perhaps our resident physics expert has inside information about this latest "perpetual motion machine". Comments? http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/story/0,3605,1627424,00.html

In another thread I listed the four passages in scripture that were used by some priests to claim that the Bible agreed with Aristotle's idea that the heavens rotated around a stationary Earth. Perhaps the most powerful of these verses (the others were from the poetry of Psalms and Ecclesiastes...
