Maybe, but the lazy really dig it. I can't tell you how inconvenient it has become at extended family gatherings when people start parroting their ID, complexity, 6-day stuff to me, who, not being formally trained, has to scrape the dust out of my brain on dating isotopes blah blah & try to explain what I haven't practiced. One might argue I should brush up or shut up, but I'd prefer if they'd just cut it out and let me enjoy polite conversation.

What happened to no politics or religion at the table?

Anyway, nice to see Santorum's support for keeping science and religion in separate beds.
