Hi Jeff, Joey, and all the rest
if this is a testable
question but it doesn't seem like an illogical one. And I have to confess, I
see it as semantic hairsplitting to be unwilling to talk about 'better adapted
to their environment' as progress. Best, Jeff Houlahan.

is not that you believe that evolution by natural selection
has not resulted in better adapted organisms - it's that you believe that
anybody who suggests it's possible, misunderstands evolution by natural
selection. Best, Jeff Houlahan

Hi all, I think the fact that I feel compelled to respond to Joey's comments
illustrate how questions 3 and 4 might be worth including in the discussion.
One common view of evolution is that it is not progressive but , of course,
it's impossible to make that claim unless you define what axis
of Dr. Jeff
Houlahan(UNB-SJ) and Dr. Dean Thompson (Canadian Forest Service, Sault
Ste. Marie and UNB-SJ adjunct).
Ideally, we would prefer that you start by May 1, 2012 but delayed
startup in the fall of 2012 will be considered for exceptional
candidates.
Applications for this position
is
warranted.

I am amazed by Pat Swain's statements implying that unless a program of work
includes formal hypothesis testing, it's not even research. (...I think
that pure survey of a property for species (making a list of all the species
of some taxonomic group
can
productively discuss the relationship between prediction and
understanding, we ought to clarify what we mean by prediction. How
broadly or narrowly do we want to construe the term?
Best,

Hi Wirt and all, I think it's a reasonable question to ask 'How important is
competition in driving evolutionary change?'. Fitness is a measure of how well
an organism is adapted to its environment. An environment is more than just
competing species. I can imagine many systems where the way
Hi Wirt, I completely agree with almost all of what you (and David) wrote.

annoyed when people ask to see the evidence. If we really mean that invasive

make sure that that statement is true and at what spatial scale it is true).
