Creationist buying roadside dinosaurs, "converting them" to I.D.

In the LA Times, news that intelligent design evangelists are buying up kitch roadside dinosaur landmarks around the country, then co-opting them to promote creationism. Won't someone please think of the pteradactyls?!?!

Dinosaurs lived in the Garden of Eden, and Noah's Ark? Give me a break," said Kevin Padian, curator at the University of California Museum of Paleontology in Berkeley and president of National Center for Science Education, an Oakland group that supports teaching evolution. "For them, 'The Flintstones' is a documentary."
