What is "dominant" or not remains, but 'bit and hit' can not run if the economy of thought we have not had it engender is kept at the broad phylacteris without the legend "up to date." I guess you dismiss this?

Re: What!?!
The Russian Smalhausen introduced a bit of difficulty in using TWO kinds of notions for Stablizing Selection, in which BOTH strengthing of a mean(distribution) & affirmation of adaptabilites into an adaptation were unified. This may be the source of said confusion.

Re: Rocks and the Scaffold
Are you aware of Galton's use of Pascal's mathematical induction during any old regression to a mean especially should the elements in the old"recombination" be left unpredicated?? Just because a conditional probablity may apply and there are some correalations between a definable plane and some old line (whether presumed ancestrally or not) does not mean that the categories did notonly give the desired result. Now if one insists that descent and mechanisms are seperable it is hardly an argument unless all the parts are actualy known materially to submit one's sense of plausibility to that kind of reasoning. If ALL of science was working on a probablisitic material basis then that might be socially acceptable and I know that there ARE trends in this direction (aka simple program science) but to make a conclusion in a DEBATE it does not. If you look somewhat deeply in Derrida on KANT and Kant himself you can fidn the guy discussing of all things a bump on a rock. Well we dont have that we have fossils and what you said. Unless we are all such lumps.

Re: Mistakes are common
try temporal hierarchies that SHIFT functionally from a physiological past to an ecological reality. If that doesnt do it for you you will have to wait for a response from me in detail as I am busy just now.

I vote for Beneficial%
Perhaps they are not neutral! IT seems possible to me that mitchondria might surface the theoretical LITERALITY of the Gladyshev thermostat and whose to say that the diffferent genetics of mitochondria could not interact with temporal effects of different changes in J-DNA via the SYSTEM interative supramoleucularly with said thermostat?

Re: I vote for Beneficial%
I am on the "road" on vacation now for a month so I do not have the time and resources available at hand as I usually do so I will note two things and BEGIN to respond.
1) think about semantic information transfer which might SKIP a generation
2)the thermo stuff- I will get into the details on on NOT thinking chemically abt compounds but about chemistry as an "instructed mixture paradigm" (see J.-M. Lehn,"Supramolecular Chemistry/Science SOME Conjectures AND Perspectives" in "SUPRAMOLECULAR SCIENCE WHERE IT IS AND WHERE IT IS GOING" NATO SERIES 1998-527.
There is a littel bit of "creative" reading that is necessary for the best (Noble Prize level) thinking still had seperated physical and biological hierarchies which would be UR unified on this thought outside the subject and object it was.
Yes, I am thinking of A LITERAL existence for said thermostat whether organlle exemplar or just posssible demonstrable by reorganizing Pascal's postulate on the cone where electrons seek the outside conducter with the identification in such chemistry of what elsewise technically is a thermocouple, (this would be a triangle etc instead).
The point will be tha the "netural" changes might be part of a functioning thermostat which obeys the Gibbs minimization of Gladyshev but that the difference of junk DNA and coded DNA is simply the level of organization that selection can cut the macrothermodynamic nesting across in. Depedning on the plietropy and epistasis a given base pair difference between individuals might alter the LEVEL of organization being stablized (organelle vs organ etc) but within the same equilibrIUM taxogeneically (per grade in a clade associable space AND time metaphysically).
More later. Brad.
