You won't believe it, but one of our former resident loonies,
Douglas Eagleson just poped up over at r.a.m.n with the
following post:

"I am an avocate of adding afterburners to the A-10 for just this
reason. A long duration of coverage is the defensive role.

A five hour rotation is possible for the Warthog upgraded. A radar
targeted front cannon is real cool.

Mach 1.5 is possible even for the odd shape. And this is enough for
coverage air to air fighting. A short evasive is the basic missile
defense.

A basic airframe is perfect for the defensive role fighter."

Just doesn't give up does he, although it is now clear that he is just
provoking argument.

As with all trolls, one has difficulty deciding if it's just his game or
if he's really as ignorant and loopy as he seems.

Over in talk.origins, there are certain kinds of trolls called "Loki,"
after the Norse god who was a trickster. Loki trolls get points if they
can impersonate a wacky creationist convincingly enough to provoke
sincere arguments from scientists. They get bonus points if real
creationists quote them in their blogs or web sites.
