These days, it seems that getting contacted by ID critics badly disguised as ID supporters is even more likely than getting an e-mail from a Nigerian prince who wants to make you rich.

Celeste Biever, Bob Holmes, Donald M. O'Malley… The list of ID critics going undercover to get supposedly embarrassing information from ID supporters is getting longer and longer. From Larry Caldwell at Evolution News & Views comes the latest example: Mark A. Farmer, biology professor at the University of Georgia, who sent Caldwell and his wife e-mails, asking them if they "support the word of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ being taught in our public schools." Only one little snag: He's an anti-ID activist, involved in letter-writing and petition-signing against intelligent design.

Figuring him out was no trouble - he even used his real name and university e-mail address. What's the thinking behind that? Hasn't he heard of Google?
