As Jeff Stratford just pointed out to me, Barbara Forrest is a historian
interested in evolutionary theory and its history (i.e., she is not an
evolutionary biologist).
Minor point, but I'm guessing the distinction is somewhat important to
Barbara so I figured I owed it to her to point out my erro
Carissa,
Based on the particular kinds of questions you ask, it's fairly obvious to
