In 1996 Dr. Kent Hovind wanted to go to Romania and teach Biblical Creationism. He knew that I had traveled several times to Romania, so he contacted me to organize the details. Mia and Costel Oglicia knew many preachers and churches and helped with other contacts. We flew in to Frankfort, Germany and then on to Arad, Romania. After several meetings in Arad and Timişoara, we flew to Buchareşt, then to Chişinău, Moldova. Next we flew to Suceava, Romania and then to Simeria by train. Besides his personal suitcase, Brother Kent had a slide projector, ten carousels of slides, and a heavy voltage transformer. Each time we flew, had to pay for the extra weight. But when we got onto the plane in Buchareşt bound for Chişinău, I was excited. The airline scales were broken and we did not have to pay for any extra weight. But then I began to think. Because the scales were broken, the Romanian airlines had no idea how much the plane’s contents weighed – the same plane that we were flying on!
