For those who work with biology, the information and careful explanation that Percy provides must be really simple, basic, humdrum stuff. Maybe I "sort of" understood some of Kimura's conclusions before reading what Percy said (I never took a biology class at any level -- I just know what I've read in magazines and web forums), but I learned a lot from that one post, I think I understand things a lot better now, and it makes me want to learn more.
(I'd like to think that Kaichos Man would learn something as well -- it's hard to imagine that anyone who misunderstands biology could read that post and not learn something -- but that remains to be seen.)
autotelic adj. (of an entity or event) having within itself the purpose of its existence or happening.
