The scientific community view on the Kansas Board of Education's evolution hearing is clear.

It has no credibility.

quote:
In recent weeks, the Kansas Department of Education staff has failed to find any scientists in Kansas or the nation who want to legitimize the upcoming May hearings with their presence.

Not one of Kansas' six major universities has agreed to send scientists.

Not one of the nation's top science organizations has responded to the request.

The Panda's Thumb has some stuff to say about this under the titles Send in the clowns and Excellent editorial in support of the Kansas boycott.

And here is the AAAS' "respectful declination" of the Kansas invite.
