Re: be specific
randman,
There should be specific predictions and estimates then on what we should expect to see.
Go for it.
Please provide said predictions & estimates. I will hold you to your own standard & expect peer reviewed publications.
If you can't provide them, then you are pissing in the wind as regards the level of resolution we should see in the fossil record.
Perhaps you could explain how such resolution can be achieved on a continent such as North America in the Triassic (for example), lasting millions of years, when for all that time, for well over 95% of the continental area we have no Triassic rocks at all, let alone fossiliferous ones.
Meaning we have no idea what critters walked & evolved over the vast majority of North America for 40 million years.
Triassic Rocks - 248 to 208 million years ago
And this is if we assume that all of the shaded areas possess sediments for the entire period, & not a couple of million years here, & a couple of million there.
Anyway, I look forward to those peer reviewed & therefore supported expectations.

Re: be specific
Cparkinson,
The article does nothing to counter the observed evolutionary pattern in the rocks.
