This way to the interstate of faith+

          "Yes! I have found God!" Eugene Smitherns jumped up out of the chair.
          He was studying molecular fusion. What he saw was simply revolutionary.
          Smitherns ran down the hallway of the campus Pu-University, with
          his findings in a print out, bursting into the Dean"s office.
          He gasped, "Look!" and slapped the papers in front of the Dean.

          "My God! Do you know what you have here?" Dean Flatulence exclaimed.
          Eugene nodded rapidly. But, he was still too out of breath to answer.
          "This is a monumental finding in molecular science! It will change the
          way we view life and non-organic substance." the Dean picked up his
          phone asked his secretary to called the local cable news, Chanel 2 ..
         

          A single camera man and reporter arrived a few hours later.

          Dean Flatulence stood at a podium in the school theater with Mr. Smitherns
          standing beside him. The Dean tapped the mike, "Gentlemen and Ladies,
          today we stand on the edge of molecular history. My colleague, Professor
          Eugene Smitherns has proven that non-organic material is alive!"
          There was no reaction from the press. They looked bored.
          The Dean bowed to the scientist.
          "Ehm. This experiment proves that organic life came from non-organic
          substance." Eugene smiled nervously at the cable reporter raising her hand.
          "That's already proven right? Life came from ice cubes on meteorites."
          the reporter yawned.

          "No-no. That's just a theory. We now have proof of life in non-organic
          molecules. This means that cosmic radiation could be the engine of
          creation." Eugene Smitherns made a big toothy smile at the disinterested
          reporter.
          "Okay. So, how do you want to video this? We could put your statement
          on after the weather: "Scientist proves we can from rocks."
          Smitherns looked over to his Dean in desperate confusion.
          The Dean approached the podium, "That's sounds good. Can we have a
          Lead interview with the Professor?"
          A short clip of Mr. Smithern's statement was included in the 6 o'clock
          Chanel 2 news after the weather.


          Ho-hum.. .
