What I liked about this ruling, as I understand it, is that ID was
thrown out as inappropriate for a biology class. That's the right
decision IMHO. If it were a philosophy or civics or comparative
religion class or something along those lines I think it would be
fine, but it's definitely not science and this is what the judge
ruled.

More power to 'im. And I concur, finally somebody with some chops
takes a stand.

And thanks to Peter K for the original link, too. Pasta and beer for
everyone! Yaaaay!
