No crank left behind

Pharyngula: Bush endorses Intelligent Design creationism

Big Bush recommends imposition
Of "designers" on science tuition.
Though clearly much wiser
His science advisor
Can't stem the foul shrubbish emission.

Bat Begins

Pharyngula: Bat development

I wanted to ask Chris Cretekos about his bat development paper, but I must have selected the wrong number in my phone book. I got Chris Nolan's response instead.

...to explore the embryonic
development of the iconic
ubiquitous nocturnal beast that is the bat;
to draw it from obscurity,
from conception to maturity,
to show this nightmare creature
emerging feature by feature;
to complete the essential series of the bat.
