@Eddie

But then, very few people who post here are specialists in evolutionary theory (as opposed to biologists, biochemists, or other people with a keen layman’s interest in evolution) – I think you and Joe Felsenstein are the only two people posting here with Ph.D.s in the life sciences specializing in evolutionary theory .

Once again we see Eddie’s fantasy of this caste separation between the Brahmin theorists and the lowly technical people.

Both of them do evolutionary biology, too. Their hands are soooo dirty!
