No.
A great interview with Edward O. Wilson on Intelligent Design's many shortcomings.
He makes the point that the public version of ID concedes evolution inthe vast majority of the cases. Once that concession is made, there's not much left.
He also makes the point that anybody who can develop ID as a scientific theory would be come famous, winning at least the Nobel and Templeton Prize. For that reason alone, he pooh-poohs any claim of a vast Darwinist conspiracy. Scientists in competition with each other can't keep a secret.
A matter of fact takedown of Intelligent Design. Good Job!

Ah... You just have to love E.O. Wilson. I'm about half way through Consilience right now, and have seeked out his lectures from the Harvard At Home website and others. I never came across this interview, however. Thanks for sharing.
Great blog, btw. I'll be back!

Probably when you said vast Darwinian theory above, you meant vast Darwinian conspiracy.
