In another thread Dinwar and I discussed briefly the videos done by AronRa, who is well known in rational/atheist circles, attender of several TAMs, geology student at the University of Texas, emu lover, the producer of some 187 videos covering creationism, evolutionary biology, and a lot of...

(Can't you just hear the creationists?) Listening to BBC this evening, and they announced that a conference in San Francisco heard a paper about a find of a mammoth and a bison which were peppered by what is assumed to have been an asteroid destroying itself in an air explosion about 35,000...
