<DIV>All:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It appears that this "mystery" is driving some scientists "nuts" despite <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">Joan's</SPAN></SPAN> claim to the contrary. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyway, <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">Joan's</SPAN></SPAN> assessment of the nature of modern scientific research was flat out wrong.</DIV>
<DIV>Much of it does focus on obscure details and theories that drive scientists "nuts," not the grand sweeping issues that Joan describes below:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>"What drives scientists nuts is string theory, or quantum mechanics, or Stephen <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">Hawking's</SPAN></SPAN> admission that he made a mistake in his ori<SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">ginal</SPAN></SPAN> work on black holes and the origins of the universe."</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>There are thousands of topics of scientific research ongoing right now that no one on the <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">V2020</SPAN></SPAN> list serve has ever heard of that are driving thousands of <SPAN class=correction id="">scientists</SPAN> nuts at this very moment. The extreme specialization of modern science has resulted in scientists spending years of their life trying to solve the most obscure and esoteric problems that 99.9% of the population will probably never understand.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'd list a few now, but anyone can <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">Google</SPAN></SPAN> "Science Magazine" to find their own list of obscure research topics that will have their head spinning...</DIV>

<DIV class=AOLPlainTextBody id=AOLMsgPart_0_c82b5be9-8f03-4845-b629-b0b1a92e74b9><PRE><TT>But it doesn't explain the red ochre and vermilion pigments. Another study
says the shroud is a painting <A href="http://www.mcri.org/Shroud.html" target=_blank>www.<SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">mcri</SPAN></SPAN>.<SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">org</SPAN></SPAN>/Shroud.<SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">html</SPAN></SPAN></A>, it also references
the carbon dating, which we are now being told was erroneous.
Yet another study typed the blood stains as being type <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">AB</SPAN></SPAN>, but the first
claims they are not actually blood. And, dang now I can't remember/find the
web address.....I need a beer....
I still doubt the camera <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">obscura</SPAN></SPAN> theory, Wayne, I think the shroud would
show the telltale signs of an aging photograph. Not too mention all of the
variables that could have <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">occured</SPAN></SPAN> during the exposure process that may have
taken days: differences in light, wind and such. Would the weather have been
identical for at least two exposures taking a total of, say, 6 days?
It is a riddle inside an enigma inside a question wrapped in a shroud of
mystery...........<SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">ok</SPAN></SPAN> so that was bad. But it IS Friday.
