No, I think he was simply expressing doubt that "Roadrunner" could 
answer him correctly. 

[IIRC, "Roadrunner" isn't American, and is some sort of 
anti-evolutionist crank and a fan of Aileron Hubbub's Scient*logy 
stuff]

Judging from his posts elsewhere [mainly talk.origins, where this 
formerly crossposted thread is more appropriate], I suspect Roadrunner 
might also have benefited from a better science education.
