ICR employees visited the new Perot Museum of Nature and Science in downtown Dallas in late 2012. The big block-shaped building that The Dallas Morning News called "brash and breathtaking" had been under construction for several years.¹ Its promoters advertised it as a place where visitors could receive strong doses of much-needed evolutionary teaching.

A recent news story featured a variety of science writers repeating the meme "Fish grow 'hands' in genetic experiment." These sensationalized stories attempted to describe a new genetics research study published in the journal Developmental Cell.¹ The primary results of the study actually produced data that refuted the accompanying evolutionary hype.
