I've been more that a little quiet the past ten days. It's nearing the end of the semester here at ASU (only 3 weeks to go), and I have been furiously working with my honors thesis students to get their manuscripts ready for defense. But they are out the door now and will be defended next week. Two are on ID (an examination of media coverage of Kitzmiller v. Dover and an examination of the "teach the controversy" claims of the DI) and the other is on the application of evolutionary theory to the law.
In addition, we're still mid-hire, so that's sucking up sometime.
And I have a deadline to hit (or miss).
