William Dembski is the Isaac Newton of information theory, and since this is the Age of Information, that makes Dembski one of the most important thinkers of our time. His 'law of conservation of information' represents a revolutionary breakthrough.

They liking stroking each other don't they?

Their egos of course


I think the good Dr^dr is too busy stroking himself to notice anybody else.  The proportional difference between the surface area of his hand and the size of his twinkie just doesn't really allow for more than one stroking to go on at at once.
