- Mr. Guerrero, if you take DNA this seriously, you may wish to
- consider environmental causes. When species go extinct, not only do
- possible realizations of genetic roulette not happen, but entire sets of
- traits are lost. You may wish to consider that human population may
- have some causal relationship with a recent acceleration in the
- extinction rate.
- The lose of the ozone layer over t.a. is becoming worrisome, as fetal
- idolatry mutates into genetic code idolatry.
