I'm a little surprised. "Complex specified information" seems to be a fancy way of saying "brute-force search sucks way too much to have done this". No, really? This is Dembski's grand insight? Without incremental mutation and variation, most biological stuff is really really unlikely! Gosh, I never would have thought of that! Thank God for Dembski!

I have to ask; does Dave know about the hypotheses and evidence surrounding mitochondria? Mitochondria having their own verifiable DNA and bizarre phylogeny and everything? Does that sound like something a designer would do? "Oh, hey, I know! Let's make an organelle out of a bacterium- that would be hilarious!" It wouldn't be my first choice if I wanted to challenge someone with how fantastically designed our cells were, but that is perhaps an oddity of mine.
