    At the March 11, 2002, panel discussion on evolution in front of the Ohio
    Board of Education, the Discovery Institute's Stephen Meyer claimed that
    encouragement to teach alternatives to evolution was part of the recently
    signed No Child Left Behind Act. Brown University biologist Kenneth R.
    Miller responded by using his computer to search the text of the law for the
    word "evolution" - unsuccessfully. Now anti-evolutionists are claiming that
    there is such language in the law and that Miller was being intentionally
    misleading.

    See Dr. Miller's response here.

    Dick,

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. The truth is not pretty, but it
    must be known.
