Zimmer & Carroll vow no more bloggingheads.tv appearances

Carl Zimmer is rather mild-mannered, but has expressed rather strong sentiments about what recently happened on bloggingheads.tv. Sean Carroll, not surprisingly, has stronger opinions. But they're now both proactively dissociating themselves from bloggingheads.tv. The McWhorter & Behe discussion is now back online. The issue is really simple. John McWhorter played up Michael Behe's ideas as awesome, mind-blowing and revolutionary for an hour. Most scientists don't consider Behe's ideas controversial, they consider them crankery.
