- This is a joke, right? I mean, really, right?
- I'd love to know what evidence you have that "evolution is suffering
- severe setbacks", and I'd love to know where the onslaught of pure logic
- and powerful science is going to come from.

- I'm quaking in my boots, really, and I'll just be sure to tell my fiancee (who's
- a grad student in organismal biology) to forget it, there are people much more
- capable and scientifically oriented than she, who will soon destroy all of
- the foundations upon which her field of study lies.
