Re: Considering rapid rate of mutation
There cannot be any other explanation. Any other explanation does not make any sense to me.
Think about what you wrote here, Ink. Are those two sentences necessarily tied together?

Re: Considering rapid rate of mutation
why they are not predicting the future of man as to whom he will EVOLVE into?
See if you can find After Man: A Zoology of the Future by Dougal Dixon - I think that it's out of print, sadly. It's a wonderful fantasy treatment of what (vertebrate) life on earth will look like in 50,000,000 years after we humans have polluted ourselves to death.
The rat clade figures rather prominently in that world.

Re: Considering rapid rate of mutation
Heh! I got my excellent copy used for maybe $8 Canadian one time in Calgary, and now they're $55 US and up!
But I'm not selling - I love that book!
