Bull. You can't fake *consistent* isotope ratios, especially inside a solid
sample. Not without building the fake sample atom by atom, and then how do
you fake natural fractal complexity present in any natural sample? By
"consistent", I mean isotope ratios that fit into solar system formation
theories that thousands of independent scientists from many different
countries have been incrementally formulating/revising for the past four
decades. Are they all in on it, too? Does every Ph.D. candidate in the
world have to swear a secrecy oath to uphold the hoax if they discover it,
before their committee (all sworn in already) grants the Pretty Heavy
Diploma? I have been inside an analytical lab at the USGS headquarters,
quizzed the researchers extensively, and observed isotopic tests being
carried out with my own eyes. While I could not conduct such a test myself
with my present training, the procedures and theories backing them up all
hang quite nicely on what I call the "tree of knowledge", i.e. an
internally consistent world view. Furthermore, you can't fake evidence
beforehand which can only be detected/ analyzed by technology that hasn't
been invented yet.

I'm not without a sense of humor, but I didn't laugh. Perhaps because in
the state where I live (Tennessee) this is the sort of sophistry which
creationists use to insinuate their agenda into the school system. They're
way too successful at it, generally because many state legislators are (a)
idiots, or (b) nuts themselves.

These particular clowns are just flogging this to make money off idiots.
