One common problem is that nowadays people equate "evolution" with "natural selection". They are not the same. Most creationists know that natural selection exists, and it is consistent with a creationist theory. People can often see natural selection in the world around us, but we don't often see evolution, although it is called that sometimes in the popular press.
This is a confusing and misleading statement. Evolution simply means change over time. Natural selection is only one of the mechanisms by which evolution is understood to occur.
Perhaps you are thinking of speciation? Because we see that happening, too.
I could not agree more. I do.Net development -- My editor is UltraEdit, and I build with NAnt, from the command line. NUnit provides the test framework. It's so much better than that bloated IDE. I find myself much more aware of what is happening in the build process. Do-everything-for-you IDE's hide so much of what is actually going on, it's scary.

My neck hurts just thinking about it.
Don't discount the ability of people to delude themselves, especially when there's a huge paycheck attached.
Ok, I should have clarified: They lost me when they called him a genius director.
Good point, but he lost me when he called Lucas a genius.
When I was with them in the mid 90's, other companies outsourced to us. I assume that is basically still the case.
