I don't know of any current civilizations that have artwork based on extinct skeletal remains.

I guess you have never seen Jurassic Park? Books, museums, movies or was that an attempt at sarcasm?

Some very famous artwork based on skeletal remains: Yale Peabody Museum

This is about 35-40 mutations per generation. That's a few base pairs per generation as I said.
​
No, that is a huge number per generation. That is 35-40, potentially different mutations, in every individual in that generation.
​
In humans right now, that would be 7 billion times 35-40 mutations per generation. 245-280 billion mutations! Do you get it?

Thanks.

I guess I missed that in the middle of all his Made Up Stuff. It doesn't have much to do with flood geology anyway.
