By the way, Sarasota has a population of snowbird Mennonites who have their own little post office and tool around on tricycles. They have an "Amish" restaurant with a bookstore that's heavy on pacifism literature. Ron will be demonizing them next, for sure.

I don't know for sure, but I don't even think it says actual years in there.

I think the number comes from some "biblical scholars" using "advanced math" based on how many generations of begats they counted in those chapters.
