Re: paleonet Creationism again



I think that a review of Doron Nof's very informative and friendly web 
site would convince you that this is a very serious and accomplished 
scientist who has produced an interesting paper (you can get a full PDF 
from his site) that has a little extra twist in its tail [end].

I just e-mailed Dr. Nof to ask if he would outline his thinking on this 
paper for the benefit of Paleonet (he has yet to reply and may not).

But this may be a salutary lesson that scientists (perhaps more than 
most) should keep their cool and not shoot from the hip - certainly not 
before they have all the facts.
