> NS and its ideas of fitness can conversely filter into the genetic level. Epigenetics might be the cause of change itself, but you dismiss NS too quickly at its power as a filter. It's the driveshaft that determines whether or not an organism gets to stay around. In the car analogy, epigenetics supplies only the acceleration.-Good point but your analogy makes my point also. NS makes the organism fit enough to stay around, but I'll bet it is the epigentic mechanism that describes how speciation occurs. Acceleration implies evolution moving forward,(EPIG) fitness is just surviving in place (NS).
