Texas's new Secretary of Education is a staunch creationist; and the legislature of NC recently voted to cut assistance programs to needy students wanting to attend state universities, but boosted funds to Bob Jones University by more than $2 million. Science is not open to referendum. What that means, of course, is that the technological success of the US is doomed. -- Warren Ockrassa Blog | http://indigestible.nightwares.com/ Books | http://books.nightwares.com/ Web | http://www.nightwares.com/ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
