So if the stickers go, that's fine with me; if they return, I am not concerned. Most students will treat them as a joke.

Do you mean to tell me that we agree that students can separate the wheat from the chaff absent federal intervention? I'll be danged.

Merry Christmas!

The Dover case is rather special because of all the lying (excuse me,"inconsistent testifying") that went on in the school board meetings. The Dover case is particularly loathsome because the school board recommended "Pandas" as an alternative textbook.

The Georgia case is merely amusing. It will just create a divide within the student body like exising divides, such as nerds and jocks.

I really wouldn't care much if parents want to cripple their kids with YEC, except my brother did that to his kids. When they got out of high school and into the real world, the shock was so great they pretty much dropped out of society. They no longer speak to their father. Interestingly, they're fine talking to me.
