“Are the gospels historical truth?”
   “They are a set of faithful witnesses to the identity of Jesus as that identity was preserved in the early church’s memory and received and interpreted in the early church’s tradition.”
(said Richard Hays in a discussion about (among other things) The Da Vinci Code [mp3 audio])

NZ is the extinction capital of the world, according to one Dr Tim Blackman. A quote from the article:

220 years ago, Captain Cook’s botanist, Joseph Banks, wrote of these shores: “I was awak’d by the singing of the birds ashore from whence we are distant not a quarter of a mile. Their voices were certainly the most melodious wild music I have ever heard, almost imitating small bells but with the most tuneable silver sound imaginable … They begin to sing at about 1 to 2 in the morn and continue until sunrise.”
