Default Open Letter to PRESIDENT BUSH - Evolution

We have Godwin's Law.

Maybe I can claim "Fleetie's Law", to be as follows:

Any usenet post containing the phrase "Open Letter To" in its subject
line is posted by a net kook.

So you're publicising your book Ed? Not here eh? There's a good

evangelist.

396 lines quoted to add one. You should know better.

What's worse, the original was cross-posted to four disparate groups; thus
many of us with kill-rules will have been totally unaware of the thread
until you single-posted your inane response.

Before again posting to this newsgroup, please read and understand the
newsgroup FAQ, and have the good manners to comply with UK and Usenet
posting norms. See below.

Stephen/Dave - in FAQ A.5, how about changing from ul to ol?
Then one could cite A.5.5, A.5.6, A.5.8, A.5.9, A.7, for example.

=======================================

Dear President Bush:

They say you're a God-fearing man. Now you have
a chance to prove it.


You mean old DUBYA subscribes to this newsgroup?

Cool!

You can also add your first paragraphs to the "Fleetie's Law" FAQ:

Para 1: It is considered good form to delete the offending
correspondance. Unless it is actually being responded to word for word
in a firm rebuttal. Or points for further discussion are being raised.

Para 2: The response(s) should appear below the article. Or below each
sentence or paragraph referred to in your own response to the OP.

Do I look pedantic in this anorak m'Lud?

Ed Conrad is far more than sad - he is the voice of creationism and
attempting to kill biological science in the US. With Bush's help he
will probably succeed as comprehensively as Stalin did for Russia.

I'm not sure they want to kill science, they just want to maximise their
profit from it which would suggest military applications only. I'm still
baffled by their desire to genetically engineer the smallpox virus so they
can inoculate their population against whatever they produce (perhaps they
just intend to inoculate a sub-population).

You know, I'm sure I've got vinyl copies of a couple of their albums
floating around somewhere at home. Didn't they support Motorhead
on one tour?

(who is expecting at least torrential rain tonight, probably mixed in
with fish and/or frogs, as he's planning to watch the Leonids...)
