While Mark Mathis was leading a bumbling raid on rationalists at Baylor University, Biblical literalists took another scalp in Iowa, of a college instructor this time. Maybe it’s time to beef up tenure, and make it easier to get.
(Maybe I need to add a new category along with “voodoo science” and “voodoo history”: “Voodoo literature.”)

Retired teacher of law, economics, history, AP government, psychology and science. Former speechwriter, press guy and legislative aide in U.S. Senate. Former Department of Education. Former airline real estate, telecom towers, Big 6 (that old!) consultant. Lab and field research in air pollution control. My blog, Millard Fillmore's Bathtub, is a continuing experiment to test how to use blogs to improve and speed up learning processes for students, perhaps by making some of the courses actually interesting. It is a blog for teachers, to see if we can use blogs. It is for people interested in social studies and social studies education, to see if we can learn to get it right. It's a blog for science fans, to promote good science and good science policy. It's a blog for people interested in good government and how to achieve it.

Millard Fillmore's Bathtub
This one I’m not so sure of: there seems to be much more to this story, a real he-said, she-said issue. So I’m not sure who to believe, or if I can take an informed position on the issue.
Of course, that’s a good a time as any to point out that hysterical ID proponents never seem to let little things like a lack of information or clarity prevent them from heralding a fracas as a clear case of oppression at work.
