I am sorry to have given you the impression that I am not sufficiently well informed to post here. It seems I've gotten off on the wrong foot with just about everybody who's responded to me. I am especially sorry to seem to alienate you, as it was one of your posts discovered in one of my many Google Searches on this topic that led me here. If I started with some very basic questions, it was because I was trying to get a feel for what really is out there after a long tango in deep darkness. I am triply sorry if you think I have wasted your time.

What is your opinion of the AWF Edwards 2003 Challenge to Lewontin, that gives us the adage "Lewontin's Fallacy?" My friend thinks Edwards thoroughly discredits Lewontin.

That blog entry looks really interesting and useful on a quick once over. Thank you especially for this.
