Eh?
Oh - One of the things we Europeans can forget completely is that there are any
politics at all in Darwinian evolution. It feels a bit as if you were to say,
"Well, if we do the orbital calculations assuming the Earth takes 365.25 days
to go round the Sun..." and an engineer at the back interrupts to say, "Earth
go round the Sun! That's blasphemy."
You'd blink a bit, wouldn't you...
Yours
Adrian
