So what do they think about non-Euclidean geometry?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
There's no reference to Euclidean or non-Euclidian geometry in the linked article. But considering how they hate anything to do with relativsm, I'd say that they would hate non-Euclidian geometry.
I think this applies:
Another example of where A Beka's likely objections to set theory lie is in a particular part of advanced set theory known as the Axiom of Choice. What the Axiom of Choice is, in a sense, is it is an explicit acknowledgement that the particular system you use to work with a set is one's choice, and you're essentially choosing specific members of that set to work with.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Laura, XM programming guide may help you navigate your TV music. Our TV recently switched to XM, too -- but the numbers are a little different (like, U-POP is Channel 29 on XM, but 24 on our TV).
If you like '60s music, I highly recommend Phlash Phelps' morning show. A little of his shtick goes a long way, but he relies almost exclusively on requests -- and his listeners know the obscure oldies.

Thanks Fred. I almost tuned to the 60's channel today. I'll have to check out the morning show. They do have more channels than they used to, which suits my need for variety, but the channel names are annoying.

Looking at the programming guide. "The Fish" equals Christian Pop hits. Duh.
Hee. "The Joint" equals Reggae. Now that's funny.

Theo, I KEA, was a little hellish. We waited almost an hour for my stuff to come out from the warehouse, and that was after 30 min in line and navigating the floor.

Shopping on the day after Thanksgiving = my biggest nightmare. Never will happen.

I actually went to the mall this afternoon, and it wasn't too bad. I snagged myself a new winter coat. It's knee-length, black, and rather Cossacky in appearance.

I am dreading the x-mas shopping this year.
