Answering Yaro's post 57
You will answer Yaro's post 57, while your at it you will actually discuss the issues he raises in 56.
ABE -- and post 59. You will show that you understand the points he is trying to make and ask for clarification if you don't. You will then offer substantive replies with your reasoning made clear.
The next thing that happens is you are suspended from the science forums since you don't seem to want to play that game or debate in good faith.

Focussing on points made
It is clear that you are not going to or are not capable of following points made and debating those.
It is no longer useful to have you in the science forums. You will be allowed another chance in about 2 days.

Suspensions thread not the place to discuss it
You probably actually think that you have answered the points made to you. That is most of the problem and why you don't belong in the science side.
Perhaps in a couple of days you will have had time to think about it more but I'm not getting my expectations too high.

Re: basilosaurus numbers
This is a very, very simple calculation. About 2 minutes should cover it. It is directly useful in the discussions at hand.
If you need a long time I will give it to you as a 2 day suspension. Whould that help?
You have told us about the large number of Basiosauri fossils. Are you know saying that they are divided into separate groups and there aren't so many fossils of each type after all?
Why don't we just stick with the larger grouping that has produced the, I think you called it, "HUGE" numbers of fossils? That is where you started.

Good work!
A good post, attempting to summarize things.
Also there is an understanding of the need to attempt to quantify things when that is the crux of the discussion.
