Just thought I would point out that Yockey provides no such criteria,
sorry. In fact _order with high complexity_ is a contridiction in
terms, at least in the sense that Yockey defines order and complexity.
BTW, Neal, I have Yockey's book right here. Could you tell me on
what page he discusses using information theory to identify whether
something is intelligently designed?
