I am beginning to get *very* leary and weary when not wary of the whole "transitional" form (fossil or not) thing. I NEVER had a problem with feeling that i had to *buy* into the whole "chain-of-being-"thing when thinking of Kant's notion of the ass with or Without Darwin's wedge taxonomy etc etc. Since the Chinese had thought of chains of transitable organics before its philosophy matured to the present day and given that this philosophical difference was not solved OR realized when I went to Cornell in the 80s and continues beyond the millenium bug not as the insect it was but some labeling on me having gotton as far as not knowing whether I, BSM, enter this "Flow" at discovery or search... I can not but *think* that this is just the St.Hilliare invocation of the "platypus" for any organic nature expressed by a human. Call me a fossil or a dinosaur but I just dont see what all the hypela is all about. There IS something of this "type".
Look if ants can decieve humans maybe aliens crawled into the soft parts of Cambrain invertebrates and the Raliens are correct. I think this is Speilberg but where am I allowed to park? no ware... Apparently my truck is only allowed to sit on the crack between two fossil reconstructions. I give up.
