| Quote (steve_h @ Sep. 03 2007,20:10) | Trying to make sense of the Dembski-Marks-Baylor-UnwittingLabHosts thing to which Dembski relates in a series of flashbacks in no particular order at :http://www.uncommondescent.com/intelli....owship-
(I tried to put the dates in a neutral format, and in more or less the correct order):
1999-2005 Dr Dr Demsbki at Baylor. Booted out.
(unspecified) Distinguished Distinguished Proffesor Marks secures a grant from Lifeworks.
06 NOV 2006 Dr Dr Demsbki appointed Senior Research Scientist at Baylor.
04 Dec 2006 Dr Dr Dembski called into Dean's office: "you're not supposed to be here, are you?"
05 Dec 2006 Meeting about Dr Dr Demsbki at Baylors Faculty Senate. Demsbki's position to be revoked.
07 Dec 2006 Dr Dr Demsbki learns his postion is about to br revoked.
07 Dec 2006 Distinguished Distinguised Prof Marks and and another DDP Walter Bradley tried to persuage Dean Kelley to let Dembski stay
08 Dec 2006 Baylor claim to have good reason to terminate the good Dr Dr. He's basically been moonlighting.
08 Dec 2006 (later) Dr Dr Dembski gets email inviting him to collect all of his crap from his desk.
09 Dec 2006 Dembski tries to get subsidised meal from an institution which no longer employs him and is escorted off the premises by security (forcefully I hope :))
01 Jan 2007 Dembski looks forward to ID-friendly research center at Baylor. Despite the fact that he's not even allowed to eat there anymore. Hasn't he read his own summary ferchrisakes?
http://www.uncommondescent.com/darwinism/2007-buckle-your-seat-belts/ | Quote | Happy New Year to all UD regulars. I expect 2007 to be a bang-up year for ID. Here are three things in particular I'm looking forward to in the coming year:
A new ID friendly research center at a major university. (This is not merely an idle wish - stay tuned.) |
02 Jun 2007 Dembski announces the Baylor Informatics Lab, a collaboration of him and Robert Marks at (a university that won't even allow him to eat on their premises). The lab is a virtual entity within the "personal" sub-pages of Robert Marks II (not distinguished professor Marks?). Baylor don't know about it yet.
02 June 2007 Botnik, AKA William Dembski is the first to congratulate Dembski on the new lab. | Quote | | Fantastic! I suppose the other side is going to say that this has nothing to do with ID. |
03 June 2007 Bob O'H first ATBC person to poke fun at informatics lab.
06 Jun 2007 Steve Story reveals that he has had 20 year old girlfriends with D-cups (That doesn't belong here, but, bastard).
12 July 2007 Dembski and Marks nearly eviscerate "The Jesus Tomb", but it turns out they're a tard late -- every else had already been there and done that.
Link still http://ecs.baylor.edu/Research/EILab
XX July 2007 Demsbki acquires domain name www.evolutionaryinformatics.org.
15 July 2007 A better link to the Informatics lab revealed at UD
16 Jul 2007 RichardHughes notes "Bwahahahahahaha..."
16 Jul 2007 etc. etc.
17 Jul 2007 Albatrosity2 posts picture of Ben Stein (who he?, ed)
20 Jul 2007 Reference to Informatics Lab in Archie Bunker thread
20 Jul 2007 Casey Luskin interviews Robert Marks converning the new Evolitionary Informatics Lab
27 Jul 2007 (O'L) Kelley tell Marks he must remove his (fraudulent) website. ?(SH added Fraudulent because it was)
29 Jul 2007 (O'L) Kelly suggests a meeting, Marks gets a lawyer.
02 Aug 2007 Wesley notes that the "Evolutionary Informatics" group link is dead.
03 (O'L) Kelly removes content from Marks "Baylor" web space which Baylor owns, without asking his consent.
03 Aug 2007 At UD, rrf asks why the informatics link is not working. He/She is Ignored.
04 Aug 2007 At UD, IrishFather42 points out that the Baylor Informatics Link no longer works. He/She is ignored.
08 Aug 2007 At UD, Grayman asks if anyone can shed any light on the non-workingness of the BIL. He/She is Ignored.
XX Aug 2007 Slimey Sal ( not his real name), aka Salvador Cordova (not his real name), currently in hiding, attempts to apply for position at Informatics Lab, which everyone else knows has been defunct for some time (at the very best).
edits: question marks, Dembski mispellings, Casey mispelled, removed business seminar ref, incorporated O'Leary timeline. "Personal" quoted. "Fraudulent" quoted |
Interpreted version of 2006 events:
Dembski booted out.
Dembski & Marks get grant as a way for Dembski to sneak back in. No one in Baylor administration notices.
Dembski gets broom closet as office in Engineering Building.
Dembski's re-infiltration is almost complete. Again, no one in Admin notices, despite having signed off on apparently routine paperwork, no doubt under false impression that Engineering was a serious & trustworthy department.
Sometime late Friday 1 Dec 2006 or over the weekend, someone in Admin puts two and two together, getting 4.
First thing Monday 4 Dec. 2006, Fan in full contact with Dembski.
Revocation of Deanly assumptions about Engineering.
Tuesday 5 December: Research Office gets strongly worded memo from Dean, noting that any grants mentioning W. Dembski should not be processed, and that any proposals from Dr. Marks or mentioning Lifeworks or Intelligent Design should be red-flagged and routed via the Dean prior to proceeding with the proposal. (OK, I'm just guessing here.)
8 December 2006: Baylor finally comes up with a sufficiently legitimate excuse to remove Dr Dr wMAD.
8 December 2006, about 2 seconds later: WAD successfully excised.
It is very odd that the latest screed was posted by O'Leary for Dembski. Dembski clearly wrote it, and, what, Botnik was too busy?
It is also odd that Dembski wants to share this.
It is furthermore odd that Dembski is so concerned with reconnecting himself to Baylor. The normal reaction would be to consider yourself slighted by a bunch of a-holes and move on to greener pastures without looking back. Apparently, he really really really doesn't handle rejection.
