Kansas Board of Ed. - no flying spaghetti monster?

It appears that there's been a shift in the new makeup of the Kansas State Board of Education - AWAY from the teaching of so-called "intelligent design" (hooray!). While this gives me great joy simply in the hearing of it and the apparent success of reasonable people (see also the voting-out of the Dover School board after the I.D. controversy), the only problem is then... since the I.D. people were pushing the all-possible-theories-for-life-on-this-planet should be taught (to leave room for religion), what about the teaching of Flying Spaghetti Monsterism? It was through the Kansas Board of Ed. that FSM could have been taught... but now what's a Pastafarian to do?
