And all this time, I'd thought that the 20th was merely another hallucination in my diseased mind.

It is great to know that this is not true. Now, I must look up old friends and shipmates, those that I'd thought gone for many years, and had even served as pallbearer for some. Boy, won't they be suprised to see me!

The Twentieth Century was a great century. All of the people who post here on Skeptic Friends Network were born in the Twentieth Century (except for those older than 104 years of age). Does this eliminate us from history? Will we become merely an asterisk? Of course, to get rid of most of the ideas they dislike (such as the ideas of Darwin, et al.), they should throw away the 19th Century as well. That would also get rid of the anti-evolutionists as well.

It must be very, very sad to be a Creationist. Brainless people can hardly be said to be alive -- at least mentally alive. Sad.

Of course.

But isn't it nice to consider that Johnson didn't freak out over 'Nam, and that Nixon and Reagan, et al, never screwed the country? And that G.W. Bush never sleezed his way into office, leaving a trail of incoherence and slime wherever he goes?

I have never been good at going into denial and need someone to do it for me.
