[Vision2020] The Hype of the Shroud

[Tom Hansen]

Nate Wilson hardly qualifies as a scientist.  He doesn't even qualify as a
professor, at least not at the University of Idaho.  Perhaps it is the lack
of accreditation of NSA that qualifies Nate Wilson as a professor.

If Nate Wilson does qualify as a scientist and does qualify as a professor,
then Al Gore did in fact invent the internet.

Things to ponder.

Now, if you will excuse me, I must partake in an old Pagan ritual; an Easter
Egg Hunt.  Hey, I'm just in it for the chocolate, ok?

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are
dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all
exist very nicely in the same box.

Ted hit this on the head.  An example of some things that keep scientists
stimulated (most don't go nuts):

Most, regardless of their religious beliefs, could care less about the
shroud.
