I know the feeling! Hm... we must join forces to fight creationists and young earthers together as a team. Quick muggins to the science mobile (Spinning Logo). All we need is a spunky female side kick with a nice rack, maybe A good pair of bazooka's some jugs and maybe some hooters as the science cave really needs redecorating...

Chuckle.
Us Scientists could definitely use a few new poster girls.
Lovely pictures, by the way Arcas. Really top drawer.
And the reasoning is sound as well.
But IDers and Young Earthists have never really been concerned with reason.
Hey, looks cool. Do you know why they take a hexagonal shape, instead of something else?
Most columnar jointing is hexagonal but it can also occur as 4, 5, 7 or 8 sided columns.
The hexagon is just an intrinsically stable system which emerges under such tensional regimes.
Can't quote the maths of the tip of my tongue but would certainly be able to hunt it down if you're interested.
