Yet there they are, a TV writer
in England, a Doctor (incredible but true) in Belgium,
and a Ph.D. student in Australia --all claiming that
we were "more aquatic in the past".

"You'd think that several hundred years after the _Principia_,

Clark, you are the scientific equivalent of a name dropper. Newton
wrote principia, you retard.

Ummm, Dimmy, the *author* of the Principia
was never in question. Its' publication, however,
*was* the point of the comment. It is generally
regarded as the *starting point* of the scientific
revolution. Get it? Scientific? So naturally, if
you had continued to read my comments, instead
of reacting with your usual disconnect, you
would have understood what the scientific
revolution has or has not to do with the fulminations
of our friends the wet apes.

It has no direct relevance to human
evolution or evolution in general.

I understand that you believe that science has
nothing to do with human evolution. You make
that abundantly clear every time you hit that enter
key.

You need to find a hobby that doesn't involve complex things.

folks would get a firmer grip. These people haven't heard,
nor do they understand the implications, or have any idea
about the ensuing history, or appreciate that maybe their
critics have, do and can, ...I guess."
