The Texas Board of Education has a six-member panel in charge of choosing textbooks.

Local Dallas coverage here. A response from sane Texans here.

The chairman also believes in abstinance-only sex education.
I don't live there any more, so I don't care as much as I used to. But, damn, they're giving Kansas a run for the money on being the U.S. poster child on scientific ignorance.
