WTH is a imperfect self-replicator?


---

Hmmm.. someone who doesnt know that very simple piece of information probably is not qualified to discuss evolutionary biology at all. Its equivalent to someone saying "Geography is all rubbish. What is Planet Earth?"

An imperfect self replicator is something that copies itself, but sometimes not with 100% fidelity.

Well no it is not equivalent to that at all. Thats all you have though, so go with it.

Sounds like a concept Dawkins would come up with. The word 'self' needs taken out.
