[QUOTE="Herman Hedning, post: 70314647, member: 27889"] Very well, but I hope this is not going to end up in silly sophistry. [list=1] [*] I can go to the very factory that makes the watch with the gears. I can look at the blueprints and machining instructions for those gears. I can look at the parts being made and the complete watch being assembled. In some cases (not sure about this particular watch), I can even talk to the designer himself. [*] Apart from that it obviously is impossible to prove a negative, I can do none of the things above. What I [i]can[/i] do is look at how similar features occur in nature and in the nested hierarchy of evolution. I can study the creatures DNA and figure out precisely what mutations led to the formation of those gear like structures. [/list] Does that answer your questions? [/QUOTE]
