And on a brighter note, the Dover, Pennsylvania, voters un-elected eight
school board members who "had ordered a statement on intelligent design
read in biology class" and elected eight who "want the concept stripped
from the science curriculum." Meantime a federal trial is looking at
the whole question raised by Dover's policy, which so far has resulted
in one class having the statement read to them prior beginning their
study of biology. Out of mercy I'm omitting the party affiliations of
the members. :-)
