Italian scientist reproduces Shroud of Turin

Still, I'm from Missouri on both counts. I don't know that the cloth is authentic. I also don't know if I trust the scientist's process. I'm not convinced either way. Both sides have too much of an agenda with the shroud. I'll just keep treating it the way I have and not get too excited about it one way or the other...
