Shows my join date as 2000, but that was the second or third incarnation of the forum. I probably first started posting there in 1995 or 1996. Damn. Twenty years.
Oy vay! Those graphics are pretty hard on the eyes. I can't tell if there is any unifying theme to the site. Is there?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
