I must say in passing I find it amusing that our anti-evolutionist posters seem very generally to be afficionados of the Art Bell school of scientific thought, complete with black projects in the DOD to produce holographic UFOs, low frequency EM resonances linking our consciousnesses together, etc. This bears out my observation that while many creationists may be scientifically literate, it's on a very superficial level; the idea of estimating on the back of the envelope what voltage could be induced in a human neuron by a neuronal depolarization 6 feet away is one that just doesn't occur to them. So they can calculate the probability of arranging the 10^9 bases in the human genome in the exact order, but they have no idea if this is a small or a big number in comparison with other probability calcuations on a molecular scale (FWIW, it's very small ).

I have to advocate credulity, but you really ought to admit that if 99% of the physicists in the country agree on a scientiifc question, they are probably not going to be correctly second guessed by someone who knows a lot less physics.

You must be referring to the information sciences, Theoretical physics, and the like, which is doing more to disrupt the viability of the evolutionary model. Many more real scientists are pursueing the evidence without the educational establishments grant money.
