Showing that we do not have the explanation for something just shows that we do not have the explanation (yet). What troubles me most about ID is its message that it is appropriate to stop looking for explanations at that point.
I also find the focus on notions like ‘complex specified information’ troubling not so much in and of themselves, but because those who actually study the CONTENT of the information found in DNA agree that it contains a wealth of information about the history of humankind, our relatedness to other species, and the way our organism functions. There are plenty of unanswered questions about the early history of the language and its natural or supernatural origins. But we have the book in front of us, and what it says when we read it seems pretty clear to most scientists.
