Review of the Introduction of the Design Matrix

by Bilbo

I haven't finished chapter 1, yet, but I wanted to comment on the introduction in Mike's book:

It's a real grabber. And he was very kind to include my name in his acknowledgements, even after I called him a wanker. So now the name of Bilbo will forever be immortalized….oh yeah, it already was in that other guy's books.

But one question. Mike, if you were willing to acknowledge Art, why not Nick? If I were Matzke, I think my feelings would be hurt.

    Hi Bilbo,

    One night, I just sat back and tried to think of all the people who provided something that helped me to stay plugged into this debate and thus the list was born.

    Back in the very early days of ARN, Art used to come across as an open-minded skeptic who offered thought provoking comments and criticisms. Back in those days, there was someone else named pinky and the exchanges between Art and Pinky were fun to read. Heck, Art even defended me once.

    Hope you enjoy the rest of the book.

    Mike, the arbor press site is quite slow. Two times I tried to order the book, but couldn't get through the orderring process. I'll try again, but just to let you know.

    I think the last thing Matzke wants is to be acknowledged in any way as helping THE ID MOVEMENT.

    Hi AdR,

    You should e-mail AVP about this. Or if you want, you can go through Amazon (a link is on my book blog).

    Art? Are you there? Are you willing to confess to this crime? :lol:
