I love it when you tell "Flooders" what _must_ be believed. :-)
I think I asked this before but can't remember how the responses went.
Why couldn't high stress conditions have caused morphological changes in
the species, which would then propogate around the oceans? Why couldn't
these changes have occurred in a relatively short period of time? Also,
do we see a gradual transition between species, or are only the two
distinct types found?
