Some creationists have proposed that 14C is preferentially leached out of samples, thus resulting in a false old age of samples in the Lake Suigetsu data.
Could you provide a list of those creationists you have encountered who make this proposition. How many, exactly, have you personally noticed/known to make such statements. Can you with certainty claim that those people you are about to list, are creationists and don't just claim to be for the hell of it. Have you interviewed such people to see if they meet the correct standards of creationist, and do you know what these standards are or will they be told you by someone you believe to know these standards. Meaning, you must make a personal judgment that the standards you are being told are correct. Aside from rule of thumb, what rules do you use to identify any people as creationists, and make it short. Just having someone's word for it won't do.

Good point. I have never noticed that anyone who has ever advocated Young Earth Creationism has ever been honest. Maybe they're all lying about that as well!
Loads of liars living in the land. It's so Machiavellian, the land is.
