My friend Mark pointed out to me that we’ll have some wonderful programming during our visit to the Creation Museum with PZ. Emphasis mine.
“The Ultimate Proof of Creation” with Dr. Jason Lisle
When: Fri, August 7, 12pm – 1pm
The Ultimate Proof of Creation There is a defense for creation that is powerful, conclusive, and has no true rebuttal. As such, it is an irrefutable argument—an “ultimate proof” of the Christian worldview. This presentation will equip you to engage an unbeliever, even a staunch atheist, using proven techniques. Read more about the accompanying book here: http://www.answersingenesis.org/PublicStore/product/Ultimate-Proof-of-Creation-The,6134,186.aspxDr. Jason Lisle did graduate work at the University of Colorado where he earned a Master’s degree and a Ph.D. in Astrophysics. He grew up in a Christian home, and because his family believed in the authority and accuracy of the Bible, he had little difficulty in dealing with the evolutionary bombardment he received in school. To learn more about Dr. Lisle please visit: http://www.answersingenesis.org/events/bio.aspx?Speaker_ID=40
This event is free with paid museum admission or Museum membership. Seating is first come first served.
Good luck, Dr. Lisle. You’ll have a room full of staunch atheists on which to test your hypothesis. This also sounds delightfully hilarious, but I’m not willing to pay four dollars for it:
“It’s Designed to Do What it Does Do Workshop” with Buddy Davis
When: Fri, August 7, 1:30pm – 2:30pm
Join Buddy Davis to explore God’s unique design of many different animals. He will show how God should be given the glory instead of time, matter, and chance. In this one hour workshop, you will have fun with several activities including sculpting a Tyrannosaurus Rex head from clay. You will also have the opportunity to sing-along with Buddy, including the ever popular “It’s Designed to Do What it Does Do.” Come learn how God has designed different creatures in unique ways to do what they should do.Gifted by God in many ways, Buddy Davis is a sculptor, speaker, and singer/songwriter for Answers in Genesis. An adventurer and paleo-artist he leads very popular children’s workshops and plays many acoustic instruments. To learn more about Buddy please visit: http://www.answersingenesis.org/events/bio.aspx?Speaker_ID=5 Ticket cost is just $4 with museum admission; a discounted rate is available for Museum members. This workshop is sponsored by Cedarville University.
Note to self: Cedarville “University” promotes crackpot religious artists who seem to think sculpting dinosaurs is proof for creation.
Unfortunately we won’t be there long enough to see “Ape-Men: The Grand Illusion” and “The Hearing Ear and the Seeing Eye,” the latter having such probing questions as “Why don’t your ears see, and why can’t you hear with your fingers?” I guess now I’ll never know! Oh wait, I know what the answer is. God. Right.
Three more weeks until the trip. I can’t wait!

At this point I'm going to be very disappointed if you guys don't get booted out of the museum.
BTW, it would be a good idea to research Lisle before you get there. He is a worthless hack but it would be a good idea to know which faulty arguments he prefers to use. There are a couple of long videos on Google video featuring him. It would be torturous to sit through them but it would be worth it to clean his clock.
You'll probably find this one useful too: http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/list.html#CE

My ears can still feel heat radiating off things, so they CAN see(infrared light, and with very very poor resolution).
My fingers can feel rapid vibration of items(eg: if I place them on speakers, or a guitar string) so they can hear too!
I'm designed by God to be extra, EXTRA special I suppose? Though I'm told that snakes can do an even better job hearing through general touch, etc…
It's lucky that you'll get to see Lisle's presentation. "You’ll learn how to move beyond simple circular arguments, spot logical fallacies, get to the real heart of the issue, and rationally resolve the origins debate."^Sounds amazing to me! A very important lesson for all those involved in the discussion over the origins of the universe, life and various species.

I can't wait either.
Soooo… who's going to be videotaping the trip? I get the feeling we might need to document it.

Yeah. Yeah. Make sure you document as much as possible and share ideas and video online. We, heretics, need more ammunition.

It's worth going to hear the tapeworm verse.

How can the law of entropy and the hypothesis of evolution coexist?

Because the theory (not hypothesis) of evolution does not violate the law of entropy.
