If I were to assign this job to someone, it certainly wouldn't be you. And Edward Tatum has already won the Nobel Prize for this in 1958. He talked about this in his 1958 Nobel Laureate Lecture. The only thing I've done is put mathematics to his idea. And any student that has taken high school level probability theory can do this math. I'm really very surprised that none in your clique has already done this.

Is that so? I found a really big error in the Jukes-Cantor/Kimura/Felsenstein Markov Chain DNA evolution models. The error is so obvious. Try using their models to simulate the Kishony experiment. I have and you don't get the correct solution. See if you can find their error and correct their math. You won't.

I suppose the error in my hypothesis is my claim that fish don't evolve into mammals and reptiles don't evolve into birds. The correct hypothesis is that evolution takes place in tiny steps and those tiny steps add up to big steps. Well, that hypothesis is half right. Evolution does occur in tiny steps but these steps don't add up because DNA evolution is a stochastic process. These steps are linked to each other by the multiplication rule of probabilities because they are joint random events, not the addition rule of probabilities. And I've shown you how to do the math correctly. Take it or leave it, it's up to you. But if you want to understand DNA evolution correctly, you had better take it. And so should anyone involved in treating infectious diseases and using targeted therapies for treating cancers if you want to play that game of chance.

Looking for fossils that fit your theory is not how you explain evolution. No. No. No. The key fundamental point you are missing is that Tiktaalik was not just found and inserted into the evolutionary model. Tiktaalik was only discovered because evolutionary theory combined with geology predicted exactly where Tiktaalik should be found.
K writes: That's not correct. My mathematical model is in conflict with your interpretations of reality. No. For someone so mathematically clever you are bewilderingly foolish when it comes to understanding the nature of scientific prediction and discovery. Your mathematical model says that a transitional between fish and tetrapods is too improbable to exist. A fossil that was discovered as a direct result of the power of prediction, the gold standard of any scientific theory, says that you are wrong. How do you deal with that head to head, theory vs theory fact? You can't. So you simply deny. Or claim ignorance.

What an incredible prediction. You found the fossil of a fish in river sediments.

Your mathematical model says that a transitional between fish and tetrapods is too improbable to existIf I understand you correctly, you contend that Tiktaalik is a transitional form of some kind of aquatic replicator without limbs (I guess, something like an eel) and ground-dwelling tetrapods. Could you explain to all of us what coding and regulatory genes are required for the formation of limbs and what is the selection pressure that would select for the formation of those appendages? Straggler writes:
If the best prediction you have to offer is that you found the fossil of a fish in river sediments, I'm not impressed. Maybe the members of your clique see something profound with that kind of prediction, I'm not impressed. So, tell us what coding and regulatory genes are needed to make a non-limbed replicator produce limbs, and the selection pressure(s) needed to select for this type of evolutionary transformation.

No. Again you either are ignorant or feign ignorance.
A transitional was found in the exact geological space predicted by evolution. Around 390 million years ago, the only vertebrates were fish. By 360 million years ago, there were four-footed vertebrates on land. So a transitional was predicted to exist around 375 million years ago. Searching in the geology associated with the prediction resulted in the discovery. Voila. Explain that. What new species has your research led to the discovery of?

I never said I was unaware of a couple microbiology experiments, but I am not a microbiologist. Your hypothesis fails to model biology beyond your very narrow focus (basically 2 experiments).

After all this time you still don't get any of the basic concepts of evolution. Sad.

quote: I’ll note that Kleinman made a similar argument earlier.
And the most common erroneous argument made on this subject is that a series of microevolutionary changes add up to a macroevolutionary change. Microevolutionary changes are not linked by the addition rule. Mutations are random events so the joint probability of these events are linked by the multiplication rule. You won't understand this because you don't understand the theorems and axioms of probability theory Kleinman’s idea that I didn’t understand basic probability theory was another of his blunders - failing to recognise the correct answer. Yet, when I proved that I did understand basic probability theory rather than going on to elaborate he failed to reply. As written, however Kleinman’s claim is vague - as usual for him - although the argument appears to be far from the slam dunk he needs to back up his claim of a blunder.
