The decision is dated December 20. That's when the judge signed the order. Technically, however, the appeal time expires 30 days after the date the decision is entered, which is a technical term, and the date of entry may be a day or so after the decision's printed date. It depends on when it's officially filed and docketed in the court clerk's office.

True enough, which is why I checked the dockets before posting. The dockets show that the opinion was signed and docketed ("entered") on December 20, 2005.

I never should have doubted you. So if any creationist is still hoping that someone will figure out how to appeal the decision, you're outta luck.
