Re: Sympatric Speciation or Speciation without Changes in Genes,Organization:

Hi John,

May be your promotion of inclusive (holistic but mainly individualistic)
fitness
can make people more wary of the multitude of 'phenotyping'
effects that can flow from just a single (conventionally defined) coding
sequence of the fundamental portion of the heritable recipe for how nature
makes its perfectly ordinary organisms. :-)

However, there is one possible pitfall with using your logical method of
countering the conventionally artificial (and if not completely kaput so
both inEPT and un-Edserian ;>) algebraic accounting for genes that give
groups that have them the advantage over those that don't.

That is: If one gets too absorbed in poinitng out the wrongness of relative
fitness one may automatically thereby tend to neglect the importance of
analyzing and accounting for how interactivity between phylogenetic factors
(within the Evolutionary Pressure Totality) has produced present day
physiologies - not the least importantly the psychophysiologies of us
people.

Cheers
