Slevesque and Dr Adequate,
Your subthread titled
Arrogance began with Dr Adequate's
Message 104. I'm a little late here, things seem to be settling down now, but in case not I wonder if you two could be persuaded to set this aside.
For Slevesque, I understand that you were only coming to the defense of LucyTheApe, but please let moderators do their job. If you think a moderator should look in on a thread please post to

For Dr Adequate, could you focus more on the content and less on the qualities of the person producing the content. This is from your
Message 104 replying to Slevesque's genetic calculations:

What you have written is indeed ridiculous. I'm going to guess either that you're mathematically illiterate or that you don't know the difference between the word "similarity" and the word "difference".
Simply pointing out the errors would have been sufficient. I recognize that some people's error rate seems to be a bit on the high side, and a bit of chiding does seem appropriate from time to time in the hope of providing a little impetus to do better, but for the most part please follow the
Forum Guidelines and keep discussion impersonal.
