[curiosity]

I just realized something. I said that the transitions are in the fossil record, and indeed many are. However, it now appears to me that my statement can give the mistaken impression that all transitional species left fossils. This is, of course, incorrect, since the probability that any given animal will leave behind fossil remains is very small.

So I would say, the fossil record has many transitional species, but by no means does it have them all. However, given the probability of fossilization, the number of transitionals we do see is about what one would expect if evolution were true.

Thanks for the clarification.
I had actually picked that up from the link you provided, but appreciate the follow-up.
It looks like it will take me a few days to get up to speed. Maybe, I should say a little while. It looks like a rather involved trail!

Thanks again!
