Wow! He used one of Napa John's posts as his new password!!Kenneth558 said:I finally figured out what to do about my addiction. I have changed my password into random gibberish that I'll never be able to crack
Lol.... that beats the "native language" comment I was thinking of...LorentzHA said:Wow! He used one of Napa John's posts as his new password!!
Ah, but you do know, I see.kenneth558 said:One reason I've lost interest is that I've just realized your ages are in that time of life (I've been there) where you know a little, and so think you know everything.
Translation: I'm getting beat up by a bunch of punk kids! Better escape before they show me up any more!kenneth558 said:One reason I've lost interest is that I've just realized your ages are in that time of life (I've been there) where you know a little, and so think you know everything. You're not worth my time.
Could that be because YEC's are so pitiful?kenneth558 said:You guys are sad, real sad.
Evolution class? Would it be too much to ask the name of the course and the school?kenneth558 said:In Evolution class today I asked the professor about how long it would take for a fruit fly lineage (3 week generation length) to speciate; that is, to give rise to a new species.
So some of her best friends are fruit flies? In any case fruit flies have speciated in the laboratory in about 200 generations. In short, a strain of fly subjected to reduced temperature, was after some two hundred generations unable to produce fertile offspring with the control group of the original species. If you're really interested you can find the citation on line, just do a search.kenneth558 said:She said about 500 million years. (She knows fruit flies, by the way.)
I suspect that it is not the mathematics that is impossible. Were I the least bit cynical I might believe your account was a little inaccurate.kenneth558 said:Can anyone here do the math besides me? What does this mean for organisms like humans with 10-30 year generation lengths? Now don't make me lead you by the hand.
Oh, maybe I need to: 20 years is (20 * 52 / 3) times as long as 3 weeks. Apply that factor to the 500 million year figure: 500,000,000 x 20 x 17 = 170 Billion years. And that is even assuming humans have as many offspring as fruit flies!!!!! Something here is mathmatically impossible. Savvy?
I did not realize that at 33!!! Gee, for a 33 year old woman "that time of life" could mean MANY different things!!Kenneth558 said:One reason I've lost interest is that I've just realized your ages are in that time of life (I've been there) where you know a little, and so think you know everything.
why thank you sirNathan Poe said:Lol.... that beats the "native language" comment I was thinking of...
