Actually the end of the show is merely some guy discussing whether it will blow up again. It doesn't have much bearing on the genetics issue.

That's good news. If I don't get any resumption of service by tonight I may just take what I have.

If you daon't have a complete file, I would be surprised if its 'playable'.
Seems unlikely to me - its not like a video tape.

I don't know about that.

It's not like an .avi file.

It will play. Some time ago I was downloading one of the Simcha shows and then forgot it was downloading.

I turned off my computer and went to bed. The next day I played the Pando file and it abruptly quit about half way through. After I figured out what I had done I finished downloading it.

Yeah, which reminds me. His big Jesus Bashing show is coming up on Sunday on Discovery.

Yeah, I'm going to watch it. There's nothing to the assertions though.
There was also an ossuary for Matthew. Obviously not the apostle though.

Monk said Simcha's claims remind him of this

It is transmitting again.

Driving me nuts!

Yeah. It is for the moment, but it'll probably stop in a few minutes. I'm at 97%.

Post by **Minimalist** » Fri Mar 02, 2007 7:56 pm

It's complete.

Aha, I see that it is. That was a bumpy one. Thanks Min. I'll post my thoughts on it after I watch it.

Actually Monk I think you may have a good point. This is the first time that we have encountered these download problems, and it's the first time that Min has sent the file to more than three people. I'm sure there is a limit to how many people can be downloading at once.
