Re: Where is Barnhill

I wondered about that. While it seems like a remote possiblility, it would be
better to assess such things technically than to accept the current paradigm
as a "belief system". (See Kuhn who confirms that in science also the only
people who are sure to be wrong are those who say "it can't be", or worse, "I
don't believe it".) Better to say "how can that be", and "prove it", and
"explain it",  instead? (at least implying or pretending an "open mind"  :-)
