Per request, a "Peanut Gallery" topic for the What variety of creationist is Buzsaw? (Minnemooseus and Buzsaw only) topic.
Minnemooseus and Buzsaw are NOT to post to this PG topic (see proposed PG guidelines here).
Adminnemooseus

Please be familiar with the various topics and other links in the "Essential Links", found in the top of the page menu. Amongst other things, this is where to find where to report various forum problems.

Information source credits/links called for
This diagram came from this very educational site which it might be worth buz having a look at.
I PMed the member about this, but nothing has happened.
  1. It is always a good and proper thing, to supply credit(s) and link(s) for the information source(s).
  2. It is REALLY as good and proper thing, to supply credit(s) and link(s) for the information source(s) if you are recommending the material as further reading.
  3. Not including credits/links is actually a forum rule 7 violation - "Never include material not your own without attribution to the original source."
Now, the source could be tracked down via the graphic's url ("view image info" in Firefox). That url is http://serc.carleton.edu/...es/quantskills/methods/xcut2.jpg. But that is not the readers job, it's the authors responsibility.
So in my example, buz would need to explain (from his Young Animal Life perspective) how the fossils got in to sediments that were deposited about 305 Million years ago. Surely the dead animals which were fossilised were deposited at the same time as the sediments, much as we see today?
As per my suggested Peanut Gallery guidelines, it is NOT Buzsaws "Great Debate" function, to respond to PG input. It is permissible for Minnemooseus (the other white meathead) to bring such to Buzsaw in the GD (and in some variation, he may have already done such).
I won't go into this further, as I'm already bending the "GD participants are not to post in the PG" guideline.
Please, NO REPLIES to this moderation message, in this topic. Any discussion needs to go to the Whine List topic.
Adminnemooseus (the other other white meathead)
ADDED BY EDIT #3 - The problem was all a coding error/glitch. I hadn't looked at "peek", or I might have noticed it.
Edited by Adminnemooseus, : Add "suggested Peanut Gallery guidelines" link.
Edited by Adminnemooseus, : Add "forum rule 7" section. Add "NO REPLIES" section.
Edited by Adminnemooseus, : See above.
