CI, I guess you were away when I had my sudden numbness attack. I always have had a certain degree of numbness in my left arm. I was hurt in an explosion that removed 2 fingers and tore up my arm with shrapnel. A few weeks ago, I was working in the barn and I wrenched my arm when a sheep I was shearing bolted and I tried to hang on. The remaining piece of shrapnel in my upper arm had moved and cut a nerve ending and asmall blood vessel. I had surgery on Tues of that week and I was examined by more neurologists than terry Schiavo.. I was more afraid of a stroke than anything. (I am such a hypochondriac, I am always getting rare and unusual diseases, so Im kind of like a joke in my family, "Hey Vladz gettin any new diseases this week?" Im getting ok, they did a neural set with some sort of gloob that actually can help inmajor neural repair, so this was a piece of cake."
Set I said

Yeh youre right, I spoke too quickly and stand corrected(Holy **** Im starting to sound like RL ). Hooke was the premier agnostic to geologists as he was one of the first to equate fossils with extinction and his geological references were clearly agnostic ,since he didnt care whether a deluge, glacier, or earthquake caused the moving of earth blocks. To which, when I think more slowly, I should add Scheuchzer, Cuvier, Buffon, Arouet, etc. I have to clarify a term like "standard of belief" versus"cutting edge science" . The two dont often merge in popular culture.
I should have qualified it from a standpoint that johnson, Hovind, safarti and other ID "pioneers" include Paley as one of those to whom they , by refernce, owe foundational allegiance.
