Sticking a fork in Natural Selection (Introduction)
But you still dodge the question. There's plenty of good reasons that we lack transitions from pre-cambrian to cambrian. The snapshot view of the fossil record *underlines* this. What right do we have to expect that the fossil record will conform to our expecations?
I'm not dodging anything. Give me some good reasons for the gap. And is a monster developmental gap from Edicarans and Bilatarians. And the Cambrian is not a one-shot wonder as gould presented. It is now found all over the world in Cambrian shale.
The question I'm asking, is why don't you consider that the gaps in the record are explained by the fact we haven't found those fossils, for whatever reason. (ie, too soft, etc.) this is of course the first explanation i go to when the gap discussion appears.

\"It is, brahmin, because of attachment to views, adherence to views, fixation on views, addiction to views, obsession with views, holding firmly to views that ascetics fight with ascetics.\"
