But you generally smell where you breathe (or taste).

But, I am not in this article, it's about a primitive fish and there's nothing in the article about that fish's manner of olfaction. Yet you said (But our ears could smell--until we evolved. That's according to the peers who pitch their wares here--) there was and used that false statement to criticize the article.

It would seem you're more motivated to hurl false claims that to honestly debate the substance.

This article is whimsy and speculation. Caprice. A joyride of possibilities. Maybe it's how it happened--who can deny a maybe?--but the really great thing about evo-"science" is that you can present all these fruitings of the imagination and no one is going to hold your feet to the fire. This is unaccountable, whereas if you feed a person a bad medicine, the results are immediate and unmistakable.

A scientist is as good or bad as any other person--this is the basic assertion I make. They can discover a great medicine--or they can feed you hokum and jeer at you when you doubt them.
