I know of someone who worked in a lab where there was a grad student secretly getting a cell bio PhD so he could have credentials to write an anti-evolution book. The Moonies supported his family while he was in school.
I'm not that up on information theory - I only touched upon it as it applied to chemical engineering's version of entropy in grad school. Dembski strikes me as an excellent warning to mathematical modelers: "At every step, make sure your model for reality has something to do with reality."
