Well, since they don't have any evidence to support their insistence on a
steady-state universe, what do you expect? Do you really think that science
works according to your moronic world-view, where someone need merely state a

understanding of astronomy is purely at the amateur level (or below). So
unless what I'm saying is directly related to VAX/VMS, don't hold me or my

hold me responsible for it, but my organization had nothing to do with it.
