Speaking of evolution - a stunt like this would be interesting, but probably political suicide, in the US: (In 2000 Stockwell Day was an "orthodox" evangelical Christian leader of a major Canadian (conservative) political party) "I just want to remind Mr. Day that The Flintstones was not a documentary," he said, before producing a large stuffed Barney toy. "And this is the only dinosaur that recently co-existed with humans." While the stunt offended some, the subtext that religious conservatism might find expression in Day's public policy alarmed other Canadians. I saw a tape of this - brilliant strategy on the part of the spin meister.
