1) Bringing back Sarah Connor just seems like it will be the biggest shark jumped ever, it just feels like its going to be a horrible idea.
Agreed, that there are highly intelligent people that believe in a spiritually guided evolution, but that's not the point they are making. The point is that they want to teach that possibility in science classes. Intelligent people believe in it, but they also know that there is no scientific founding for it.
He goes on further to talk about Ron Paul as well and cites articles listing his anti opinion of evolution and another where he shows support for teaching creationism in schools. Even further in the article they list an example of a Republican who holds beliefs against those listed by the front runners to show that…

I don't know, I actually think his actions were kind of cool. If you read the link there was a debate going down over at Mental Floss as to what they believed would be the origins of the relationship and Bob Gale left a comment saying that him and Zemeckis envisioned it like that.
So apparently someone's been reading a lot of David Brin
I've been reading too many Uplift books, but there is another point of view: Lets say that planets that can harbor life are extremely rare throughout the universe, to keep from having us destroy a perfectly good planet they could feel the need to intervene.

My only issue with this is that with DTV I can watch a different game on each receiver in my house, if I get rid of DTV and move Sunday Ticket to my playstation I no longer have that option.

Dresden Files couldn't compete? Why not? I know it didn't make the finalists list, but I thought that was because it didn't receive as many votes in the initial run. At least that's what it looks like when you go through the comments themselves
The finalists list was a little under 250

Time had it in the top 100 novels of all time so its not too surprising to see it on a similar subset list
From what I hear its b/c NPR wants to do an all YA list next summer and since HP dominates all lists like this they decided to exclude them this time around
Zelazny does have Amber on there to represent though and Le Guin has two of the Hainish novels, so all in all I think that's still pretty damn good
