I agree
It doesnt have to "change" anyone's 'mind" but unlike other sites such as NIAG which is actively trying to find arguments to say NO to Answers thru "genesis" or True Seekers that tries to keep tabs on c/e activity or even MSN where some of the more colorful proposals can be found this site provides a means to show that c/e actually IS a PRODUCT of disciplined THINKING and not a mere fringe sociology.
I would like to say that I think C/E is showing that contra Mayr 1966 c/e HAS ALREADY SHOWN that an organism has more than one geneotype. I have learned at least that this is what my contributions may ultimately amount to regardless of the large # of posters who still may find not assesed value in my posts. Part of the barrier to understanding this view (which would be due to cardinal vs ordinal enumerations) in some juggle of microgeographic variation and macromutation) IS Gould's assertion and subsequent PUNCEQ that "existential adapation" was hardended. I find the c/e hyperlinks proove the opposite that if it is fluid instead. It was mild at least.
