Steve:

Very nicely done. The one suggestion I have for your classes is to use
``natural explanation'' rather than ``naturalistic explanation.'' I
think that more accurately represents what you are doing since there
is no philosophical commitment to natuaralism (except in the minds of
Sagan, Gould, etc. and some Christian critics of science).
