I listened to a story on yesterday's All Things Considered (NPR), that I think will get many of you fired up. A group of "conservatives" (read: religious right), have set up a competing web encyclopaedia to Wikipedia. One example of the difference between the two is that Conservepedia uses Creationism to explain just about everything. They say that Wikipedia is too "liberal" in its approach. I'm sure that many of you are going to hate it, and a few will love it. They even stole Wikipedia's design! As much as I have doubts about Wikipedia, I find this new site quite disturbing.
