A concatenation, not a conflation.
On the sidebar, one may note that I just read the Dawkins book. Interesting. He finds a lot of inductive evidence concerning evolution. I find it a little tedious.
The evolution/creation argument aside, it is perhaps instructive that he points out that if the case were to be decided in a court of law, the decision could be easily made beyond any reasonable doubt. Interesting point.
In other news, Eddie Fisher is gone, deceased,extinct.
Too bad. A genuinely nice guy, and a decent singer too. Very easy to work with.
A little tale: when Eddie performed at the Top Hat Supper Club in Windsor Ontario Canada (I was the bandleader there at the time) he was in the habit of talking to the audience in the middle of the show - reminiscences and personal stories. I always thought it pleasant, and the audience seemed to like it. But the owner, Mike Drakich, would stand in the back of the room and half-grumble/half-yell "Don't talk Eddie; SING."

Mr. Dawkins, I was at the Top Hat in Windsor for all of Eddie Fisher's shows. Yes, he was a nice guy, a decent person. Nothing like the tabloids made him out to be.
I enjoyed all of his shows there and anywhere I saw him, he was a great entetainer, full of charm and talent. Eddie's real fans loved to hear him talk about his golden days in Hollywood. I miss him but have great memories of seeing him and talking to him at his shows, even in Windsor at the Top Hat, I got to spend time with him.
