" Shimrod, I think you got the gist of my previous posts about beetles, I am not about to go over it again."

Right, well, as far as I could tell from the your previous 'explanation' (of the beetles thingy), you believe that Noah's two 'ur-beetles' speciated after the Flood - even though you had previously stated that you didn't believe that speciation happened at all (correct me if I'm wrong there, pete?). The only other possibility is that the Ark contained twice as many beetles as there are species of beetles alive today - that's an awful lot of beetles! And it gets worse because, of course, beetles are not the only species of invertebrates - not by a long way - the ARK must have been just a seething, crawling mass of 'creepy-crawlies'!!

But I think there's a better explanation. I think that your red-neck, creationist buddies, whose websites you parrot, don't know anything about the real world around them and hadn't even thought about invertebrates (because, of course, they're too 'trivial' for a 'puffed-up', born-again fundamentalist to even think about). As a result, when put on the spot, and having no 'web-guru' to refer to, you just made stuff up (correct me if I'm wrong there, pete?).
