An interesting article on the museum was published in Esquire last year.
It can be found on the web here:
http://www.aboyandhiscomputer.com/Greetings_from_Idiot_America.html 

 

Some language in the article (its Esquire after all) and a fairly
liberal view, but it takes the point that the real problem is the
widening gap between "intellectuals" and "everyman." And that academic
achievement, scientific knowledge and questioning is no longer respected
or encouraged in our society.

 

I adore this article...

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Creationist Museum?

 

Did anyone else see the article about the multi million dollar
creationist theory museum? Located now ir rural Kentucky.

 

Not sure if the newspaper or the museum staff misidentified the
paleontologists in the diorama as archaeologists!
