Thanks.  You sound just like the BA-er I was always hoping to run into over
there but never did.

Absolutely the best line I've heard in awhile....
Gotta like it, yes.

Thanks very much for this example, Robert.

Robert, my problem is I am so uneducated.  I don't even know what
non-Machian means.  I have grown somewhat in knowledge though while on this
board and also the BA.

Robert, I am earnestly looking forward to an answer on the solar eclipse
issue, studying the geocentric satellite issue, and figuring out what this
darn Coriolis force is.  One poster on BA told me the g view needed an extra
rule to explain the Coriolis force, while the h view needed nothing as it
was a natural consequence of a rotating body.

I have been in contact with Richard Elmendorf about the claims for the
Foucault Pendulum made by BA posters.  He sent me a letter which I received
this evening.  Mr. Elemendorf believes it is possible Noah's ark was made
out of concrete and makes an interesting case for that, but he also
thoroughly refutes the BA on the Foucault Pendulum, as I expected.  Mr.
Elmendorf doesn't have a computer so one just has to write him.  He is very
good about writing back.  He types his letters on an old-school typewriter.

No, but several of us may link together that way for awhile.  My email is
GaryLShelton@xxxxxxxxxxx  Contact me because I'd like to stay in touch.
Marshall Hall's website is interesting, as is Dr. Bouw's, but they are the
only other places I know to go.

In geostasis,
