You're absolutely right.  Gary himself chose net.flame to followup articles
from net.religion, but I did (honestly) try to keep my responses to a more
appropriate newsgroup (net.religion).  After part 7 or so, I just got extremely
tired and lazy in regards to changing the title and newsgroup lines (perhaps
that was part of Gary's intention?), and posted to net.flame instead.  Actually
no newsgroup would probably have been the most proper destination, but when a
man twists every sentence you've ever said into a linguistic pretzel, you may
feel obliged to respond.  I'm sorry it overinfested net.flame.

(P.S.  I looked back through the vaults to find the PREVIOUS Gary Samuelson
response to an article of mine, and do you know what it said?  1) "I'm not
going to give serious answers to Rich's questions because that's been done
already", 2) "I'll never respond to another Rich Rosen article again" (both
paraphrases---I don't have the original at hand).  Tonight on "It's the Mind"
we discuss the phenonemon of deja vu; that strange feeling...)
