Just find me a mammal fossil from a rock stratum formed long before the mammals existed.
Do you honestly mean to tell me that an anomalous fossil find would invalidate evolutionary theory? C'mon man.. let's get real. Any geophysicist would tell you that it could be accounted for by a variety of catastrophic events, plate tektonics, etc.. There is a never ending list of natural events that one can use to work around problems with the theory. Just talk to Gould and ask about his P.E. spin on neo-darwinism. And ask him why he formulated it!

The evidence for evolution is that all the data falls into a clear pattern, explained by mutation and natural selection. If there is solid evidence that the pattern is invalid, the theory would collapse. Seriously.
