Ah, a social hack rather than a computer one. You're right, that's more likely.

"Let's face it - if any of you ever chances to meet Chris in real life, you probably won't want him to know that you were one of the ones insulting and harassing him on the ARN board"

I'm an electrician and I bend steel conduit for a living. Think of the possibilities for a minute...


This could get interesting. We should have pz debate Mike Gene for the rational part of the presentation and then Chris and I could square off for a pro wrestling style finale...

What's sweet is that ARN could loose face twice in the same evening.

Williams is a big name in creationist circles??? Fred Williams???!!! Oh my. The cretinists are in even worse shape than I imagined. Boggles the mind.

Well, HE thinks he is. I mean, after all, he is pals with Wally "Kuckoo" ReMine and he does have a personal website with some nonsensical gibberish on it...

This reminds me of a Monty Python skit. "Instead of debating the existence or non-existence of God, they are going to fight for it...

"The final score: God exists by two falls to a submission."
