Kansas and New Mexico

[Bill Shear]

Did no one else take notice that New Mexico school authorities have
mandated the teaching of evolution in schools under their control,
explicitly stating that it is not neccessary to present "alternative
views"?  I guess this is a "dog bites man" story and so of less media
interest.  But it did make a back page of the Richmond Times Dispatch a few
weeks ago.
