I had the website named "tonguebutnodoor.net" in some config file. But the server was redirecting requests sent there to "www.tonguebutnodoor.net", and this difference blew some CGI script's mind. Awesome.

In order that this post not be a complete waste, I bring you this story. A Missouri school district let some Answers in Genesis creationist visit a bunch of schools and talk to students during their science classes. This generated an editorial in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch which ended with this:

Last year, the percentage of Potosi seventh- and 10th-grade students who scored "proficient" or "advanced" in standardized science tests was below the state average. Perhaps instead of hearing about creationism, those students would be better off spending their science classes learning about science.
That's ridiculous. The problem is obviously that there aren't enough questions about Genesis on the state's standardized tests.


Hat tip: Afarensis.
