Talk:Thomas Barnes

I changed the first three words of this entry from "Thomas Garden Barnes" to "Thomas G. Barnes."

Reasons:

Dr. Thomas Garden Barnes is Professor Emeritus of Law and History at the University of California, Berkeley, and President of the Association for Canadian Studies in the United States. See this site for instance

But Dr. Thomas G. Barnes, the creationist physicist, is Professor emeritus of Physics and Director of Schellenger Research Laboratories of Texas Western College of the University of Texas at El Paso. Who's Who in creation

I honestly don't know what the G. stands for in the creationist physicist's name, but I have only ever seen him referred to as Thomas G. Barnes in all the creationist literature I've read. And as "Garden" is an unusual name for a person, I'm guessing there are not two of them. There are several people named Dr. Thomas Barnes in the United States, but I could not find the creationist ever referred to as Thomas Garden Barnes except on CreationWiki, so I think it is wrong.

If someone knows better, and the creationist physicist is really also the law professor and the specialist in fruit trees, then please restore what I corrected. But there were references in the main article to books or papers that seem obviously to have been written by other people named Thomas Barnes. I deleted them too.
