I live near Cleveland, but was too busy to attend this program. Stephen
Gould was not there, I think because of illness. Dr. Miller and Dr.
Lawrence Kraus were there.
Dr. Miller has arguments countering Intelligent Design (ID) in this
Cleveland Plain Dealer interview.

His refutations against ID are also covered in more detail in his excellent
book, "Finding Darwin's God". In this book He offers the anthropic
principle in defense of his Catholic faith, which is not mention in the PD
article.
The PD website has other articles regarding the ID contriversy at
