Leif's stupendously long article was quite amusing, but I certainly don't
have the time, nor the inclanation to shoot down every one of the gross
misconceptions he apparently entertains.  I'll just content myself with
dredging this falsehood out into the light:

    Oh?  There are human fossils in Cambrian strata?  Right next to the
dinosaur fossils?  You wouldn't just be making this up, would you?
Did you find them yourself?  Why haven't you reported this find to the
scientific community?  Nobody else has even found any mammals at all.

    Don't the rest of you creationists find it a little embarassing to have
this guy on your side?
