DarkSyde continues his interviews with pro-science advocates at DailyKos, this time with my good friend Wesley Elsberry being the victim. Very much worth reading, and worth following his advice and joining organizations like the National Center for Science Education. The NCSE's budget is dwarfed by that of the Discovery Institute and even dwarfed by traditional young earth creationist groups like the Institute for Creation Research and Answers in Genesis. It's only $30 a year to join, a small price to pay to keep science education from being weakened further.
