Had a beer with @art today and learned a great deal. He is a great scientist, and dedicated educator.
@Art had high praise for Peaceful Science, comparing us to a pre-Dover bulletin board ARN (http://www.arn.org/), where he and other scientists were engaging regularly with ID when it first arose. I really appreciate his rational for engaging back then, and right now too. It seems that both he and @pnelson were conversation partners back then too.
I am looking forward to hearing more stories from them, and others, that were from “before my time” in the public square.
@jordan, I hope you can connect with him soon about undergraduate institution science education. Some of the specific demographic challenges you are facing @art might have some good insight into.
