Hmm. Interesting.

So I'm no expert on either side, and talking ex cloaca here, but from Wikipedia's Timeline of evolution and Bible Gateway's Genesis 1, it looks like the major problems are seeds and flowers, and birds. Those are the ones that are significantly out of cycle, leaving aside the whole light/sun question.

Close - Midrashim (singular midrash).

amych and I once had a long conversation about fanfic as midrash. (And conversely, you can think of midrash as fanfic about God.)

Whoa! Liese with the table making!

I just finished reading a book set in 9th century Russia, and the Christians were all going to the Orthodox church and pretending they didn't believe in the power of the Winter Bear any more.

Nonetheless, Bear got some credit from the locals later on for using the cold of winter to quash Napoleon's and Hitler's armies.

Hee. I can't think unless I make tables. And then edit them compulsively after.

Winter Bear is awesome!

Of course, the future doesn't look so great for him, what with global warming....

Tables RULE. Nothing like 'em for organizing and visualizing yer data. Plus it's so much fun doing stuff like merging fields and drawing boxes around 'em. Signs that I may be a nerd, although YMMV.

Tablesare prettyeasy touse.

edit: I suppose a border would be nice....

Formatted correctly,

your table appears

Much like haiku.

Except sometimes, such as now not.
