Hope that this is not too late for your project.
1)Age?
39 Yeah gads, I turn 40 this year
2)Level of education?
Ph.D. Biochemistry and Cell Biology
3)What is your occupation?
Director of Manufacturing of a Biotech company, pretty much head of Biochemical research as well until we can add people.
4)Would you consider yourself religious?
If yes, what religion?
No, I prefer the original philosophical basis of the Tao to any organized religion.
5)Have you ever taken a high school AP Biology course or any college biology course?
Yep, taught some college level Biochemistry courses too.
6)Do you "believe" in evolution or creationism (or ID)? (or none of these, or both?)
Sorry, wrong phrasing. It is my opinion that the scientific method is the best means we have for defining the natural world. Evolution, ie change, has occured in living and extinct species; it is my opinion that Natural Selection has played either the major or a key role in that change.
Thank you.
Por Nada.

Better scrub biology from the list of college level subjects that TC can lay claim to....

Actually information theory w.r.t. biology/molecular biology is a whole couple of levels above general biology. I am still pretty good at general bio but this information theory application is a stone cold b!^ch. IMO it is worse than Thermo in a lot of ways
