Re: eroding the framework
maybe a tiny selection level would be getting thicker hair.
major, or really large, selection level would be surviving the K-T extinction event.
who knows what he means?
I don't know of any one who's really figured out what Brad's saying--I defintely don't get 99% of what he writes.

Re: eroding the framework
let me see if I got this right:
you brought up the different level of selection idea as (a parallel?) to the creationist demand of macro and micro evolution.
in other words--both are pointless, or rather, the difference in each level is meaningless?

Re: eroding the framework
leave it my total lack of experience compared to yours.
I gave my understanding of what you meant by different levels of selection as sort of a half joke. I didn't intend for it to carry on further. oh well.
let's see if this is better
you brought up different selection levels to show how macro/micro are different in more than just time span?
if I'm wrong again, tell me, and I won't try any further interpretations. if I'm right, no need to go further, I think.
yeah . . . . .
