Okay. Is there any way of quantifying epigenetic change. So I can work it into the equation.

That' etic barrier which prevents our current evolving populations from evolving to a different order.

the first part will need a bit of searching for

and the second part might simply be that evolution is an ongoing process that takes many generations to complete.

Stupid. Why don't you stop swallowing the witless drivel your mentors keep shoving down your throat and look at ALL the evidence. I'd point you to some, but you'll keep the banter going for too long on why that's wrong because it doesn't agree with your point of view. Anyway, I'm off to bother the French aliens invading my town - and enjoy the tennis-match. Nice to meet you guys! Happy, friendly and happy to wrestle.

Hi, David, I'm new on the forum - I don't love chess that much, but did enjoy the public banter of the forum. It's quite exciting tossing a two-cent on a forum and getting such fast replies! I vegetated on other forums and lost interest, but this one just might be my punching-bag. If you so desire, I will make a chess move sometime, but don't expect Kasparov...

Worthless punk... Delicious. I bet your kids will euthanize you.

Maybe with aardvark administering a medical enema. I'm sure it'll do his morbid fascination with the dodgy cleric a world of good. You and RatX seem to know each other; what was his previous name?

"Unfortunately, usually wrong... Carbon dating comes up with more contradicting evidences than the Soviet Economic strategies for catatonix.

C'mon Aardvark, it was just a joke. If it was "offensive", I appologise.
