1. It's the transitional form! Yay! Evolution is proven!

LOL

[sportndandy]

15. Darwin said NO transitional forms!

Competition drives out all but the niche dwellers.

22. I don't think Darwin said that

In fact, it would be entirely contrary to his theory.

There are MANY transitional fossils known today. In fact, it can be argued that ALL fossils are transitional.

2. Is there an article related to that photo?

9. Seems rather well preserved

for a sea creature washing up on shore. I've got an artist friend in England who makes stuff like this.

10. It has to be a hoax

I recall seeing this before in the Ripley Museum in Fla. It is cool though.
