The part about humans and dinosaurs co-existing is amusing to me, but I 
don't see reference to this at that URL.

I also don't see the intent to inject ID into public schools. A later post 
by the OP refers to planning for school buses in the parking lot. Maybe they 
expected church school buses.

I searched the site and found one reference to "school"
http://www.google.com/search?q=school+site%3Acreationmuseum.org

As far as the Kentucky thing goes, it sounds glib to the extent that some 
could be predictably offended.

One could also say,  "This museum is located, predictably, near Cincinnati." 
I don't see how that's predictable.

Did the OP see reference to this creationmuseum.com site on a blog, news 
aggregator site, or on in a listserv? Please provide a URL so we can see 
this in context.
