Hey, Dickover:

Something tells me you're scared of the truth by playing ostrich and
burying your head in the sand.
Does Truth frighten you THAT much?

Obviously, some other close-minded ``ostriches" will follow your
advice and, personally, I couldn't care less.
But I assure you there are countless others out there who ARE
open-minded and have long felt that the scientific establishment
certainly has not been honest and forthright in dealing with the
question of man's origin and ancestry.

And I think they're rather pleased that they're finally tuned to the
right channel where I'm calling a spade a spade..
