I missed the original post but PLEASE . . . . Gimme a Break!

Take a closer look at his "Sponsors" and his Venues.

Just another Whacko Creationist out to (hopefully) make a name & a buck
for himself in his sunset years. One of those "warm, fuzzy, feel-good
types who has never got dirt on his boots or under his fingernails.

I can't remember the quote exactly, but in Palladin there is a line that
goes something like: "save me from all those with good intentions".

Sorry if I seem a bit brusque, but as an Australian, I can't stand this
sort of bullshit.

Cheers,
Chris Hocking
