==Video description:==
Da Ali G Show does science. Ali G (Sasha
Baron-Cohen) invited (now federal inmate and tax
cheat) creationist Kent Hovind to discuss
evolution. The show erroneously lists Hovind as a
"Dr," but his "doctorate" was earned from an
unaccredited diploma mill. For more Hovind videos
look at ones made by http://youtube.com/ExtantDodo
and for answers to Hovind's misinformation see:
http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/hovind/
==Youtube controversy:==
Eric Hovind [Kent's son] has been using false
copyright claims to get youtube to pull negative
material.
I guess Hovind's son has gotten tired of Kent
Hovind's lies getting exposed on YouTube. So his
son lied and claimed he owns the copyright on
videos in an effort to silence his critics:

==Audio of Hovind lying in jail==
Listen to the Kent Hovind jail recordings played
at his sentencing:

This one in particular has Eric Hovind plot with
Kent to hide assets from the government:

| "Science and the taboo of psi" with Dean Radin |
 |
Google Tech Talks
January, 16 2008
ABSTRACT
Do telepathy, clairvoyance and other "psi"
abilities exist? The majority of the general
population believes that they do, and yet fewer
than one percent of mainstream academic
institutions have any faculty known for their
interest in these frequently reported experiences.
Why is a topic of enduring and widespread interest
met with such resounding silence in academia? The
answer is not due to a lack of scientific
evidence, or even to a lack of scientific
interest, but rather involves a taboo. I will
discuss the nature of this taboo, some of the
empirical evidence and critical responses, and
speculate on the implications.
Speaker: Dean Radin
Dean Radin is a researcher and author in the field
of parapsychology. He is Senior Scientist at the
Institute of Noetic Sciences and four-time former
President of the Parapsychological Association. He
holds an undergraduate degree in electrical
engineering from the University of Massachusetts
Amherst, and a masters degree in electrical
engineering and a doctorate in educational
psychology from the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign. He has worked at AT&T Bell Labs
and GTE Labs, mainly on human factors of advanced
telecommunications products and services, and held
appointments at Princeton University, Edinburgh
University, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, SRI
International, Interval Research Corporation, and
Boundary Institute. At these facilities he was
engaged in basic research on exceptional human
capacities, principally psi phenomena.

| Ghetto Science - Smoking |
 |
Most people haven't seen this, but I bet it would
help more people understand why smoking isn't a
good idea. Filmed in one take and completely
produced in under an hour. If you think the
results are fake, go ahead and try it yourself.
And if you start smoking, you are an absolute
idiot.
For the record, I'm a smoker. I've quit, but that
will never make me a non-smoker. Once you're
addicted, you're a smoker for life. All I can do
is try to always be a smoker who is not smoking
today.
The music in the background is Mozart's Requiem
Lacrymosa. Anyone know why?
