Scientists Pwn Those Lying About Their Work For Creationist Agendas
October 18th, 2009 Daniel Fincke PZ Myers points us to two great letters from scientists to creationists distorting the meaning of their work. The idea that non-biologists commenting on the internet can feel entitled to go around calling legitimate biologists frauds is so stupefying to me.
