Buz:
Please refer me to the verse where God proclaimed the "Light" He created to be "the Sun." I'm finding where He "created Light," found that it was "good," and separated it from "darkness." But then I find that He "called the Light: Day! and the darkness He called: Night!"
I also find where He created the Dome and called it "Heaven" and set in the dome "greater light" for day, and "lesser light" for night. Does the Dome rotate and thereby cause the "setting" and the "dawning" of "Light?" Ooops, I didn't mean to spiral off into astrology; sorry.
Anyway, I still don't find a definite proclamation of the creation of "the Sun." Was there no Hebrew word for "the Sun" either created, set aside, or otherwise provided between 6000 and 200 BCE? Did Moses, the writer of Genesis, not know a word for "the Sun" after years of schooling in Egypt? I'm bewildered.

Re: Helium?
Buz: Get dressed up as one of Santa's elves. Go to the mall. Buy a helium-filled balloon. Enhale the contents of the baloon and speak to the kids in the sit-on-santa's-lap line. Giggle with their moms and dads. Get gassed on Starbuck's. Enjoy the evening. Peace.
