The “National Center for Science Education”:http://www.ncseweb.org has excellent “ongoing coverage, including transcripts and podcasts, of the trial in PA brought by parents against the Dover School District”:http://www2.ncseweb.org/wp/, which is trying to force non-science into the science classroom. I’m spending my evening working while listening to their podcasts.
