You're right. Absolutely right. I retract all of what I said.

You did not just say that, did you?
By the way, apparently drinking makes for being a successful Republican candidate. Or was the word supposed to be "whiner"?

AiG may be wrong but his reasoning is very clear and sensible.
He might need to add a bit, which I've noted.

I have been following this thread from the beginning and perhaps it is just me but RAZD is sure clean and exact in his science, and so calm in his delivery. Brings back memories of that Isotope Hydrology class I had in 83 and what could have been should I have proved less a slacker.
At any rate, RAZD is the master. He has more than deserved praise in the past and should never be taken for granted in the present.

DWise1
DWise1 has said his nick isn't meant to be bragging but two recent posts are something to brag about.
He offers good advise to those who wish to argue against the science discussed here. Perhaps all new comers could be pointed to these posts (as if 99.98 % of them will listen).
