Instapundit links to a corrected version of Asimov on the defense of Fort McHenry.
My father and I didn't get along well, but one time he took me to hear Asimov speak, knowing I would enjoy it, which I did. I very dimly recall that his text was something about how the evolution deniers need to explain not just how species happen, but what makes a light bulb light up when you flick the switch - because the explanation we have, the, er, current one, no longer works if we reject science by rejecting evolution.
