Given that ID theorists have been steadfast in denying that they have anything to do with creationists, that link is a pretty interesting piece of counterevidence to that claim. A veritable bone in the wrong strata.
I would just like to point out that ID having nothing to do with creationists is not the same as creationists having nothing to do with ID.
If the tables were turned, Im sure you would agree that atheists having something to do with evolution is not the same as evolution having something to do with atheists.
I would also like to point out that ID may be too small yet to deal with both the political issues and continued development at the same time. Could be years before we see anything.

ID began as a political move, before any development.
Isn't this a 'chicken or the egg' type thing? I would certainly be interested in seeing a detailed time-line of the development of ID!

If it will be years before anyone sees anything from ID why is it being pushed at kids using power politics?
I guess I should have been more specific. I meant it could be years before we seem anything NEW...of whatever it is you're looking for in your OP.

Im hardly qualified to speculate on what the ID leadership may or may not have in store for us. But I can tell you what I WOULD like to see!
A weekly cable program specifically for the ID vs Evolution debate. Each week influencial people from each camp could debate, and update the public on current developments.
