Who are the dodos in the current debate over evolution versus intelligent design? With a Super Size Me-style good spirit, marine biologist turned filmmaker Randy Olson travels the country in search of an answer. He starts with his 82-year-old mother who is neighbors with the top lawyer for intelligent design in Olson's home state of Kansas, which is the epicenter of the controversy. This film gets beyond the tedium of the "debate" of who's right and who's wrong. Instead, it explores how those who embrace each side are "communicating" their ideas to the public. more at flockofdodos.com Cosponsored with the Museum of the Earth as part of their Darwin Day activities. more at www.museumoftheearth
