This is an interesting paper I found up on the kingsnake.com forums. It talks about modern snake eyes being most similar to aquatic vertebrates suggesting that scolecophidia may not be the "most primitive" in Serpentes (or at least that's what I can gather from it).
I enjoyed the paper and the new intelligence, but it doesn't help fitting snakes in with lizards...
