At the risk of digressing I think the thrust of ID may be missing the point (ignoring the fact it's really an attempt to get Christianity into American public schools).
Establishing something has been designed is somewhat pointless. What's important is understanding how it was made - Intelligent Implementation or II maybe?
Why is it important to know how it was made? Because then you can do it yourself. I know we can do gentic modification to some degree but I think we're still a bit away from being able to create a world sized ecosystem
I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then
