I know, I just had a rather lengthy discussion with an evangelist preacher freind of mine today on scientific dating methods, logical inference, etc., as he is a big creationist, and does a program on the local public access channel. He was talking about some creationist 'scientist' named Gish that he purports is rather good at arguing the creationist case. Anyone heard of him?
