- I resent your attempt at keeping me out of Rolls-Royces and wild women.
- Righteously thinking future members of my Church of the Earlier Saints
- Days of Eight Ours (tm) will point out the manifest error in your
- reasoning. It is the presence of very large terrestrial fossils
- near the poles that would disprove the theory, not the presence of
- small fossils at the equator. Your fundamentally flawed reasoning
- brands you as a choice recruit for my Church. Start those donations
- coming, you have my blessing.
