Meredith (mcgraced) | 81 comments I'm helping a friend whose father loaned a book out, wants the book back, but can't remember the title of the book. The person who supposedly was the book borrower has no idea and my friend would happily repurchase the book for her father if she could figure out what it is!

What he does recall is that this author was able to rattle off the name of every bone in the body - and I think that happened while on stage at a lecture with Bill Clinton.

Not Lee Strobel, but we think it's along that style...

The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief by Francis S. Collins?

He was on the Colbert Report several times, Obama made him director of the National Institutes of Health, and his wiki page mentions he was "joined by" Bill Clinton to announce a working draft of the human genome.

Meredith (mcgraced) | 81 comments My friend's father passed away, so my friend is no longer trying to figure it out and we wouldn't know for sure if we found it because we wouldn't be able to confirm it with him.

Should I delete the thread or does it get housed elsewhere?

Sorry to hear about your friend's father.

We won't delete the thread, we'll move it to Abandoned; there is the minute possibility that it can still be solved if someone finds an author who rattled off the bones of the body on a stage with Bill Clinton.

``Laurie (laurielynette) I recall that there was a pastor from California that had written several books that spoke during Clinton's inauguration, but I can't remember his name. He writes self-help books and is very middle of the road.
