First I've heard of it. John Dart was or is the religion writer for
the Los Angeles Times. He wrote a book "the laughing savior"
with some interesting ideas and suggested a method for
understanding the order of Thomas' sayings that I could never
make head or tails of. He's an intelligent guy, though, and 
a professional writer so the book is bound to be readable and
may have good insights.
