Today is the one year anniversary of the Panda's Thumb, the group science blog that I and a few friends started to address the evolution/creationism/intelligent design controversy. They grow up so fast, don't they? And you really should check out Ian Musgrave's brilliant dismantling of Michael Behe's arguments on blood clotting and Russell Doolittle. Also, keep an eye out for the new Panda's Thumb mascot, which will be unveiled and traveling the country soon.

Grats!
Discovering the Panda's Thumb was one of my bigger joys in the last year. I look forward to seeing what news is on it every day. Through it, I found this site as well as many other's. I would say it is definitely one of my top5 favorites.
The only thing I don't like at the Panda's thumb are all the creationists trolling the comments section, but otherwise it is perfect.
Great work from all it's contributor's, keep it up!
