If you can take that to justify an Earth-centered model of the Solar System you ought to offer your services to the creationists: they have need of mental prowess such as that. Also, I would like to hear it proven than Unicorns don't exist. Please, no arguments along the line "I've never seen one, you've never seen one, ergo there are none". -- Michael Ward, NCAR/SCD UUCP: {hplabs,nbires,brl-bmd,seismo,menlo70}!hao!ward BELL: 303-497-1252 USPS: POB 3000, Boulder, CO 80307
