1. KANSAS: AAAS TURNS DOWN AN INVITATION TO DEBATE EVOLUTION.
Last Friday, the Kansas State Department of Education invited the
American Association for the Advancement of Science "to provide
expert opinion regarding the mainstream scientific view of the
nature of science," at a hearing on evolution.  Drawing from the
Santorum report language accompanying the No Child left Behind
Act, the invitation says the curriculum "should help students
understand the full range of scientific views that exist."  Of
course.  The problem is that there is only one scientific view of
the origin of species: Darwin's "natural selection."  snip

Driving home at night the still-white bunnies stand out against lawns suddenly devoid of snow and I think: "Jackrabbits that turn white when the snow comes and then brown when it goes fluked that out pretty good. Better than the ones that turned brown when the snow came and white during summer 'cause the coyotes spotted and ate all them."
