Intelligent merchandise
I not a huge fan of Intelligent Design in the schools and don't keep track of all the arguments, but I can certainly enjoy their merchandise--the t-shirts, coffee cups, book bags, etc. Here is Intelligently Designed Apparel and Merchandise. Each individual design then has its own page which includes some cute explanations:"The sensory and motor mechanism of the E. coli bacterium consists of a number of receptors which initially detect the concentrations of a variety of chemicals. Secondary components extract information from these sensors which in turn is used as input to a gradient sensing mechanism. The output of this mechanism is used to drive a set of constant torque proton-powered reversible rotary motors which transfer their energy through a microscopic drive train and propel helical flagella from 30,000 to 100,000 rpm. This highly integrated system allows the bacterium to migrate at the rate of approximately ten body lengths per second. Would you please find out who filed the patent on this thing?"
Of course, if you're not open minded and believe everything you were taught in elementary school, skip it.
