Oh, that just made my day. Thank you! : ) :) : )
Some of the Evangelicals/Young Earth Creationists I know here in Houston (where they ubiquitous) still seem stunned by the news. But most of them have taken the discovery in stride. The wingnut paralegal next door to where I work said I shall keep going astray if I let such matters distract me from "things of the spirit."
