adaptations cannot threaten survival
are you sure you want that printed under your name. Adaptation came into the lit BEFORE selection. You need simply imagine an onclave of NASA leaving Earth and Us behind and reproducing in space gaining an adaptation and knowledge of this post adapting their technology to return nothing but death to the rest of us ON EARTH and should this be actually like Mutally Assured Destruction thier own survival as a pop could kill every thing except their advanced genetic enigineering they would have had to have practiced in space to accomplish it. There is too much info on this web site to stick ONLY by the standard Zimmer style writings about change. net Economics gives otherwise.

What I have found 'telling' is that Sewell Wright used the phrase "phase of matter" when discoursing to/from Lotka/Volterra equations. He also spoke of 'supplementary space and time information' which I took as supplemental phase by phase, per competition fit or not.
