Yep, awesome story.
The origin of the movement is awesome and came about from one guy who was trying to stop a concerted effort to have intelligent design taught alongside science subjects with equal billing (southern US of course). I love the clear correlation between global warming and the decline of pirates.

The closing statement says it all really.
"I think we can all look forward to the time when these three theories are given equal time in our science classrooms across the country, and eventually the world; One third time for Intelligent Design, one third time for Flying Spaghetti Monsterism (Pastafarianism), and one third time for logical conjecture based on overwhelming observable evidence."
