Dr. Jones. I wish you Godspeed in proving geocentrism. If I have anything of earth-shattering importance to share with the group I will bring it to you privately and if you care to share it with the group, that's fine. I really have nothing to offer but questions and ill-informed comments at this time, and I realize I am more of an obstruction than a help at this point. I'd like to continue to receive the postings from the group if you don't mind, but I won't post anything myself to the group, only to you privately.
