Yes, you too can <a href="http://www.omniology.com/OMNIOLOGY-Certificate.html" target="_blank">become a certified Omniologist.</a>

Being a certified "omniologist" carries about as much respect and honor as being a sex offender.

Spreading idiocy on the internet? I thought it was holding steady at 100%, though only to 4 digits of precision.

What's funny is that this site is listed as a reference for home schooling.

My favorite on the site was the one of the obviously faked picture of the civil war soldiers standing over a <a href="http://www.omniology.com/LivingPterodactyls.html" target="_blank">pterodactyl</a> that they had killed. I wonder if this one made the

It did make it to the Skeptical Inquirer last month or the month before. It's fake (duh).

And look at the top of the page - President Lincoln will be completely friggin' livid when he finds out that the Civil War was in the 1870's, after he was already dead.....

FYI: the faked photo of Civil War soldiers standing over a pterodactyl was produced by the same people who made The Blair Witch Project.

Greets.

Just reading through your wonderful site. (http://www.omniology.com/LivingPterodactyls.html in particular)

Wondering if that pic was really taken during the 1870's

Further information would be appreciated

Thanks

(I've had an interest in this stuff for a while, and your site seems to be the best I've found)

Sent this e-mail (using my mainly unused e-mail address, fo course) to the administrator about that particular site.

I'll post again when I get a response.

I think a particular Biblical verse might be in order after viewing the above website.

"professiong to be wise they became fools..."

BTW Camden do let us know what they say in response. I gotta hear this one.

Will do.

They probably guessed it was sarcasm the minute they saw I'd complimented them on their site though. (let's face it, a bit of a giveaway)
