Rick Wood has an online series of skeptically-based interviews on his website Audio Martini (he interviewed me recently, too). Later today (December 8, 2005), he will air -- get this -- a debate between noted skeptic Michael Shermer and none other than Intelligent Design apologist William Dembski! I can't wait to hear this one. Shermer is smart, witty, clever, and quick on his feet (and also, in the interest of transparency, a friend of mine). Dembski, on the other hand, loves making false arguments, using incorrect analogies, quote mining, misrepresenting others' work, and is not above twisting the truth to match what he wants to see. This should be interesting to say the least.
