You do know that in the very link you gave, it says ''The idea has seen some revival in the twentieth century by some modern creationists, who have extended the argument to light that appears to originate in far-off stars and galaxies (although other creationists reject this explanation[1]).''
The link 1 being an AiG article based on Humphrey's (amongst other things). So the wiki page you used really contradicts the very thing you wanted to use it for ...
which was that Humphrey's hypothesis came down to omphalos hypothesis, which of course it does not and if you think so then you didn't really understand it. As someone earlier in the thread said Humphrey's proposition made predictions, who turned out to be wrong, but it is still far from the omphalos which by definition cannot make any prediction.
Anyhow I don't view humphrey's explanation to be the right one anyways.
