#####Really? So exactly *how* does it work? You have a Nobel Prize waiting for you if you can give a good answer to that question. We await your revelations on this subject.#####


Cute! Perhaps I made a bad choice of words. But the scientific community dows know enough about gravity to make calculations about space probes and such.

They know *that* it works, and by how much. They know next to nothing about *how* it works.

Evolution, meanwhile, is on immensely firmer footing. We know *that* it works, *and* how it works. Most of what remains is reconstructing the details of individual events in life's history, which is akin to figuring out which rocks in an avalanche took what path down the mountain, and not learning more about the effects of gravity, friction, or impact dynamics.
