Creationism

["Mickey P. Rowe" <mrowe@indiana.edu>]

After being given a week to think about it (and having been prodded by
another attempted incursion) I've foolishly decided I'm going to draw
a line in the sand with respect to Creationism.  This list is for
discussing the science of dinosaurs, and despite what many of its
proponents might have you believe it seems clear to me that
Creationism is not science (nor is it generally concerned with
dinosaurs).

I am going to allow Kerry to send messages to the list again, but if
she attempts to introduce the subject of Creationism (or more
generally religious objections to the topic of this list) I will
remove her.

This is now going to be a policy for the dinosaur list.  We've been
amazingly free of Creationist invasions and I'll do whatever I feel is
necessary to see to it that we stay that way.  First infraction will
give you a one week timeout; second will get you booted from the list.
Everyone else please (at least publicly) ignore any Creationist
messages sent to the list.  I'd rather be incinerated myself than see
the whole list engaged in flame wars.  If you have a problem with
the policy or would like to run something past me to see how I might
react before you send it to the list you know where to find me...

P.S. Let's also please try not to talk *about* Creationism here.  If I
have my druthers there will be no public responses to this message.
