Comment on New Foliage by ~Mom~*

The tree I fear is being to topple. It bears fruit, yet again, amazing me with its determination. The weight of the fruit as it grows however, has pulled the tree more than six inches up from the earth with no weight on the dying side to balance it. I’ve even noticed tonight that it seems to be pulling down on the wires a bit. I fear this is the last year and lost sleep last night as I tossed and turned eager for the June drop to lighten its load and hoping that it will survive this one last season. :(

. . . and it was at that third pointless comment, my darlings, that marks the first place in the thread at which Tonstant Weader fwowed up.

I second that, Piglet! It was indeed excellent.

Off-topic: have you heard that Ray the Bananaman's book giveaway might be at Harvard today?

Exactly. According to Jeanson’s reasoning, Philadelphia and Baltimore couldn’t possibly be within 100 miles of each other, because each is about 2500 miles from San Francisco.

Thanks for the video links, Liulian! I didn’t notice before, but Jeanson actually quoted Michael Denton in one of his slides.

Around 9 minutes into the video: “We can’t say that we are closer to (let’s say) chimps than we are to yeast … because chimps and humans are equally distant from yeast.”

Yes, we can say that. The question is human-chimp distance vs. human-yeast distance, not human-yeast distance vs. chimp-yeast distance. Lying SOB.

My bad, here it goes again: These links may be useful to you. Here's the excerpt from Jeanson's talk on cytochrome c. Also, part of his talk about calcium regulation and irreducible complexity.
