I'm not a biologist but from my understanding, Lenski's experiment just displayed what was already known.
Now Behe says that the probability to get from point a to point b is a gazillion to one. What he overlooks is:
1. Evolution is not goal orientated and there could be a bazillion proteins that could perform the same function. He should take these into account.
2. Proteins are not binary as a near hit can have a partial effect.
3. there are a bazillion ways to go from a to b. Behe only looks at a single path straight from a to b.
