"I'm curious why do you insist on using the word "discrete" when you could just as easily used the word "continuious"? "

Because discrete is correct and continuous isn't as correct.

"Gould's theory was discrete and eposodic."

So was Darwin's.

"Did you also admonish the poster I was responding to for accusing me of "stinking up the thread"?"

He wasn't incorrect.

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

Continuous is correct.
