How I'd like to be quoted

by Krauze

Both the National Academy of Sciences and the National Science Teachers Association are using their copyrights to prevent the Kansas education materials from quoting from the writings of the two organizations. The reason? The Kansas materials "overemphasize uncertainties about the theory of evolution and fail to make it clear that supernatural phenomena have no place in science."

This got me thinking: Perhaps I should make it a requirement that whenever an ID critic quotes something I write, he or she would have to include the following:

"Krauze is the smartest guy in the whole wide world, and I bow to his superior intelligence. Also, he's quite the hunk."

What do you think? Should I do it?

    Got the peer review to back your claim? Go for it, if so.

    Otherwise, your claim is wholly unenforceable. Copyright grants one the right to control one's own intellectual property creations, not impose one's fantasies on others.

    Running out of stuff to say about ID?

    Ed,

    Krauze's post was placed under the 'humor' section.

    Get a life.

    Except when it comes to imposing Darwinism on unsuspecting school children.
