"Validity" is not contingent upon AndrewC's acceptance of it.

Sorry general, all this experiment proved was that Intellignet Designers can introduce targeted genetic changes that screw up feathers in numerous predictable ways.
That has nothing to do with whether or not scales evolved into feathers. AndrewC's point is well taken, at least by me. It was not an invalid experiment, but they used the experiment to reach an invalid conclusion. What they THOUGHT they were testing for was the evolution of feathers, what they ACTUALLY tested for was whether or not Intellegent Designers could change feathers and how.
