The podcast for today's radio discussion with Fellman, Scott and Laden is available.

A bit about the history of the NCSE; cultural relativism in the science education movement; Greg disses bench scientists again; The appeasement question; A phone call from a famous Pharyngulistum; Science standards; Local control. The Minnesota Science Standards. An intelligently designed buffet and the question of "alternative curriculum."

Good show. I especially enjoyed the commercials for the restaurant with a phallic name.

Sorry I hung up and missed out on your question Greg. Kind of a n00b to the whole radio call-in thing, plus I had a 6 year old bouncing off the walls to get some attention. Once the standards are finalized, that whole process would make a good discussion and definite blog post.

Anyway great show. Im glad the show didnt get bogged down in the whole atheist-accommodation-science "debate" circulating the blogophere recently.
