Hi, Alan.
Welcome to EvC!
I'd like to draw a couple of things to your attention:
First, there is a "Reply" button at the bottom of each individual message: use that button when replying to someone in particular, and only use the "Gen Reply" button when your reply is not aimed at someone in particular.
Second, this thread isn't about transitional species. There is a recent thread on transitional species:
On Transitional Species (SUMMATION MESSAGES ONLY). That would be a good place to go to talk about what you want to talk about. There might even be a few things you could learn by reading that thread.
See you there?
