1. EVOLUTION: CHARLES DARWIN IS ALIVE, AND LIVING IN KANSAS!  In 
August 1999, the Kansas State Board of Education eliminated not 
only evolution, but the Big Bang and plate tectonics as well,

where religious conservatives have gained control, the action of 
the school board embarrassed the majority of voters of Kansas, 
who got rid of the fossilized members of the board at the first 
opportunity (WN 4 Aug 00).  This seemed to assure that evolution 
would be restored, and yesterday the new board did just that, 
approving the new standards by a 7 to 3 majority
