Oh wait...so, Rosebud=Anne McMullin? Didn't see that coming.

Sounds like she's accusing Lindsay, then, for being party to her being mistreated by Dehlin...And now it makes sense why he was thrown into this.

Oh Good...another Rosebud thread.

Great thread. I hereby prophecy that the poster named Fair Dinkum will soon be banned for putting pompous ass Scott Lloyd in his place for being a jerk for pointing out his misspelling.

Gee posits this was not a translation project because the recovered papyri do not contain the text of the...

Gee's attempt to make it believable leaves me with a headache. The KEP/AEP only make sense as a tool of Smith's effo...
