Mixed Signals: Creation vs. Evolution





Opposite Day! Creation as technobabble and Evolution as melodramatic sermon... it's not just a brilliant switcharoo, it's also remarkably well done. You can watch them side by side on Vimeo.

Off-topic (but not if you're Pat Robertson):
So you've probably heard about Ida by now, but did you know it's also an impending hurricane? Do you think the World Meteological Organization and The Paleontological Society have a secret rivalry over names? You know, like the Anchorman news team street fight.

Mustaches bristling! Barometer slings launching projectiles into a crowd of prehistoric graverobbers! Picks and chisels bringing down the front lines of the weather soothsayers! Ida-the-hurricane-of-dead-lemurs!

Anyway, that's how I want to imagine it. We now return to your regularly scheduled program...
