I enjoyed reading that, thanks!

Hey, I wonder what Darwin would think about some of the thoughts from people here (BoT) on human "evolution"...I'd love for him to join one of those conversations!!!

Yes, I'd like to see him here on this BoT, maybe with the user-name "Charlie" or "Chuck". I am sure he would not be at all too stuffy to use those names. How COULD he be and produce "On the Origin of Species"??!! By the way, if you want to read great books by a true and devoted Darwin supporter, Read "The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins!. (small voice heard saying: "Hey, Lonecat, I think you may haver said that before somewhere"

Oh, my Dad has all of Dawkins stuff, and went through a period when he would NOT shut-up about those books. I've seen some of the docos he's done & he is good...but maybe needs to lighten up just a tad!! Dawkins would possibly think I'm nuts too, which is just fine with me.
