You may want to reconsider.  I heard that Judge Jones farts a lot. *Expel*   -------------- "Following what I just wrote about fitness, you’re taking refuge in what we see in the world."  PaV "The simple equation F = MA leads to the concept of four-dimensional space."

Nine academic, scientific and cultural institutions around the city are holding a Year of Evolution, a series of exhibitions, seminars and lectures to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin next February, and the 150th anniversary of the publication of his seminal work, "The Origin of Species." Events will include a talk by John E. Jones III, a federal judge who ruled in 2005 that teaching intelligent design — the belief that some aspects of nature are so complex that they must be the work of a higher power rather than of evolution — in public school science classes was unconstitutional.

Looks like they have live streaming and archived shows for anyone interested.

Thanks for the tip - it looks interesting, especially in light of the NEW DI efforts to make sure even more school districts lose money. -------------- Come on Tough Guy, do the little dance of ID impotence you do so well. - Louis to Joe G 2/10 Gullibility is not a virtue - Quidam on Dembski's belief in the Bible Code Faith Healers & ID 7/08 UD is an Unnatural Douchemagnet. - richardthughes 7/11

Judge Jones said that he doesn't have knowledge of the prosecutor's office proceedings in the investigation, but given the lapse of time it doesn't seem likely that charges will be issued. -------------- "You can't teach an old dogma new tricks." - Dorothy Parker

I thought I heard about Wes from the midwest... Too bad about the perjury but I'm happy that Judge Jones just pointed out that in science a theory is more than 'just a guess'.  Not the only battle, but one we need to keep fighting.

Yeah, it is too bad that those scum get off free. But, there is still the hope that Karl Rove will do time.

And a real, actual "Laugh Out Loud" when I visualized DaveScot having to explain to the Mrs. how his shoe accidentally wound up in the TV.  Again. -------------- Come on Tough Guy, do the little dance of ID impotence you do so well. - Louis to Joe G 2/10 Gullibility is not a virtue - Quidam on Dembski's belief in the Bible Code Faith Healers & ID 7/08 UD is an Unnatural Douchemagnet. - richardthughes 7/11
