I don’t think Schlafly has any idea at all what the data actually are, nor does he care. He’s just trying to make Lenski look bad by making it seem like he won’t “release the data”. It’s basically the “Richard Dawkins is not a professor” Situation all over again.

I’m guessing this is some sort of underhanded lawyer tactic.

Wait… The “data” in question is a significant number of samples of Ebola… right?
And Schlafly is untrained to safely handle said virus, correct?

Hell, I say Lenski gives it to him.

“Lenski to get access to the data from his e. coli citrate experiment: despite Lenski’s willingness to give his data to a certified biologist”

I find it interesting that there is no chat about “certified biologists” interested in the data presented by Lenski. It appears that ID and Creationists are more interested in the data than evolutionary scientists themselves.

[...] documentation and samples of the bacterial cultures. Lenski replies. This goes on ONE, TWO and THREE times, as Schlafly demonstrates clearly his ignorance on the topic of evolutionary biology, and science [...]

Yes, I gave that link to Schlafly days ago as have others since then. He dismissed the links as a classic internet diversion tactic. Go figure: Not only doesn’t he understand the paper (never having read it), but he doesn’t even know where to go to find the relevant information.

He’s out hunting Heffalumps.

Argon – Lenski published the recipe for the media elsewhere:

But it’s a variation on Davis Minimal broth … so Andy is probably going to complain that the data is incomplete because he has to look up the recipe for DMB.

I’ve just posted an article on this looking at Schlafly’s real strategy, my thesis being that in attacking his science skillz (or lack thereof) we’re slightly missing the point here.

He hasn’t done an MTA. He truly doesn’t seem to appreciate that one can replicate most of the work, including the crucial ‘replay experiments’, if one has those strains in hand. Or maybe he’s trying to save face. The good thing is that it appears that even the ‘regulars’ there (of which I’m certainly not), know how bad it looks.

Q: Are all the younger Schlaflys employed by the Eagle Forum?
