dhw: I would add that the conclusions of these scientists are based on their studies of cellular behaviour, you yourself have agreed that there is a 50/50 chance of their being right, and devoting one's efforts to proving something is not the same as proving it - an argument that cuts both ways, of course. So keep an open mind.-DAVID: Pulling rank: As a medical physician, trained in understanding how cells work in the human body, and presuming logically that they have the same automatic attributes in single-celled organisms, I won't change.-You can pull rank on me with all your presumptions, but not on the professional biologists who disagree with you. One of them won the Nobel Prize for her discovery of genetic transposition, so try pulling rank on her.
