Interesting article.  I just thought I would correct one point, shocking 
as it may be, in case anyone gets into a discusion on the point.

They did get one paper published [1], and in a vaugly respectible jornal 
too.  However, a number of the members of the Biological Society of 
Washington were shocked, and it sounds like something dodgy was going on 
with the review proccess, and the journal issued a repudiation [2].

I mostly point this ont as one can imagine many ID proponents stating 
their ideas were published in a peer-reviewed journal, and 99.9% of 
people will never read the repudiation, let alown the paper itsself.
