David,

I will only comment on the second sentence in the following paragraph:

Two comments:

It would be very helpful if Prof. Brown had given references for
the results of dating techniques that give evidence of a young earth.
Who "hides" these data? Who squelches the data?

A few weeks ago, I posted a very brief description of the Oklo
phenomenon in the hope that young earth supporters would comment on
this. I have not seen any comments from any of them other than a curt
"interesting" or words to that effect.

I will send you the Oklo description separately so as not to add
unnecessarily to the bulk of the ASA file.

Shalom,
