If you ever get a very mild version of the flu, similar to the one I seem to have contracted, and you just want to kill a few hours not knowing (or caring) whether you fall off into a blissful nap when you close your eyes for a few moments, be sure to use your Tivo to check out the PBS documentary Judgment Day - Intelligent Design on Trial.

No one knows what really happened and whether god had anything to do with it.
