True, but one must realize that some problems are indeed complex, and my call for a complex answer.
One person's "nice simple response" might be viewed as a "superficial response". Also, simple responses are fine and good, but they can leave room for others to draw conclusions that were not meant.

Just a note to Delshad:
I note that you are never using the "reply" button, found at the bottom of the individual messages.
Using the big "Post Reply" button, at the bottom of the page, does work. But if you are replying to a specific message, it is nice to use the "reply" button found at the base of the specific message. That's how the "Replys to this message" and "This message is a reply to" notations come to be at the bottom of the messages.
Using this feature helps connect up the relationships between messages. Just an organization thing.

So far, the answers have been related to why not all former living creatures have been preserved in the fossil record. This indeed is a very real situation.
But, another aspect is the situation of punctuated equilibria. "Punk Eek" has its own topic at http://EvC Forum: Punctuated Equilibria -->EvC Forum: Punctuated Equilibria .
Of course, the preservation of a fossil record of "punk eek" is also a problem.
