Under the thread "Engineering and Metaphysics Initial Abstracts Posted" our good friend Gil post's:

"I would love to present a paper, and I could write a really good one. Unfortunately, I do engineering and commuting from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM every day, sleep eight hours a day, and therefore have only about four hours a day for everything else in life."

It's not worth it.  Just walk away.

Actually, I'm really curious as too how deep that rabbit hole goes when there isn't a real focus (as caused by AtBC denizens).

Could we get into total reality denial.  Was Galileo wrong and the church right?

I like Bruce.  I hope he shows up at TSZ.

One thing in Barry's favor is he may have put a stake through the heart of the ID movement.

UD may not be much, but it's the forum of record for Dembski, Behe and the DI.

I dunno, Liz. This guy is a habitual violator of the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
 
Quote
Given Dr. Sewell’s analysis, and assuming that ID’s claim that the design of living things is the result of intelligence, the implication is that there is one and only one phenomenon that is capable of violating the Second Law, and that is intelligence. It implies that intelligence, including our own, is not a feature of the material universe (“in the world but not of it”). I believe that it is correct to say that every time we create complex specified information, we have violated the Second Law. And notice that we humans do this routinely, so routinely in fact that we typically don’t even notice. We don’t have to be Leonardo da Vinci or Beethoven or even Bill Gates to do this. All that is required is to speak or write a meaningful sentence of more than around 20 characters, or repair something, or straighten up around the house. I am violating the Second Law right now as I write this.

Which one of you is Bruce David?  :angry:

All,

Thanks for the encouragement.

My expertise is in AI search algorithms, mathematical combinatorics, and FEA (finite element analysis) of dynamic, nonlinear, transient systems.

I’ve been given a promotion at work which will require even more time to solve problems with FEA simulations concerning an inflatable isotensoid supersonic decelerator for upcoming Mars missions.

But what do I know? I’m just one of those mindless religious fanatics who can’t think clearly, can’t ascertain the undeniable truth of the creative power of Darwinian mechanisms, and who thinks that the Darwinian hypothesis is junk science on steroids.

I’ll make a promise: I’ll write a paper for next year’s event.

are you kidding?  that sombitch aint going to inflate the isotensoid supsersonic impersonator before he solves the problem.  

that's because he is a hypocrite, because otherwise that is exactly what frilldo would require.

ETA  lemme just armchair psychoanalyze the shirt here for a second, if Frildo loathed himself just an iota more he would draw a warm bath and buy a box of razors.  but more than he loathes himself he likes to sniff his own underwear. jesus christ i bet he goes all henry rollins on that album cover three times a day

I looked up Gil Dodgen in google scholar and the only mention of him I can find is something to do with checkers. Nothing regarding FEA work. The checkers stuff dates as far back as the mid-1970s.

So, here is the terrible thought I have not seen addressed directly; What will you all do now that UD is dead? I know there are still twitches, but those are just maggots burrowing under the skin.

I have suggested commenting on newspaper sites. We could even return with creationist scalps still bleeding to post here at AtBC.

I think I prefer the ganging up on Newspaper comment threads.  That sounds like fun.

Hitting blogs is just jumping head first into the smelly shit.

These clowns are absolute crackpots.  We could probably do a 1000 words on every sentence.  And no one would read it... ever.
