CreationWiki response:

Note: Thomas Barnes made the reference in 1973, and the paper referenced to by Talk Origins is dated 1981. This is simply an out of date claim. It is not used by creationists any more. Further more the only place this claim is used is at Talk Origins and anti-creation sites cloned from it.
