Re: Laurie Anderson - I don't think LA and her image is really in the general public knowledge. Dont Be a Flea's thinking that it was actually a photograph of you was a understandable mistake.

"Nebraska Man" stuff

Where did you get this info? A reference link would be a nice touch.

And I would really like you to be cautious about expressing you crankiness tendency. Right now, I think both Admin and I have pretty short fuses concerning you.

Dude, you're posting esentially bare links

Forum rule 5, you know:

quote:
Bare links with no supporting discussion should be avoided. Make the argument in your own words and use links as supporting references.

Adminnemooseus

Added by edit: OK, only one of those links is pretty bare. The other references the above quotation.

Edited by Adminnemooseus, : See above.

Request for support for assertion

Frankly, I just cannot see how you can overestimate the significance of evo obstinance that even something as small as this, it took well over 100 years to get evos to back off and admit at least the data was faked.

Now the fatal flaw of evolution is "evo obstinance"? Yes it was a blotch for too long. But it is a detail that has been corrected (or at least mostly corrected, you even seem to agree).

In fact, they are now trying to resurrect Haeckel and some form recapitulation to some degree.

I want to see some solid support data for that assertion. You may post such as a response to this message.

And how about slowing down your posting rate? Maybe a few gem postings instead? Don't reply to this last part.

On supplying links

The 2002 paper...

This is intended to be to the membership in general.

I know that this paper was linked to upthread, and I have managed to track it down in message 187, but doing such may not always be so easy.

It's a nice touch, to resupply the links, especially for those that are not following the topic closely. Like I just did above.

The quote is from the abstract

From MK Rich Ardson - MK Blog Rich

quote:
Haeckel's much-criticized embryo drawings are important as phylogenetic hypotheses, teaching aids, and evidence for evolution.

Randman pulled this from the papers abstract. At least in that precise wording, it does not appear in the paper itself.

Being in the abstract, it is probably a highly condensed version of a larger discussion. Would someone care to dig into the paper itself, and find and quote from this larger discussion?

Need more focus - Closing in about 15 minutes

RAZD writes:

This topic seems to be jumping all over the place, and perhaps what we need are some foundations for arguments.

It's jumping all over the place and running in circles even when it's on-topic because the topic is pretty broad. Then there have been quite a few way off-topic runs and quite a bit of generally irrelevant sniping at each other. Besides, we're now well past 300 messages which tends to indicate that a fresj start or something is needed.

Closing in about 15 minutes. Feel free to propose new more focused topics.
