Sort of busy today with teaching stuff, so in lieu of anything I have to say, here are some things to check out:
- John Wilkins has a four part post on why creationists are what they are [1] [2] [3] [4]. He also takes on the Pope's latest expectoration on evolution.

- Nick discusses the drop in science funding since 2001 ... I wonder what happened then?

John, I'd appreciate any comments you might have on that creationist series. Publicly or privately.
