This specimen confirms that early arthropods moulted during growth, just as they do today.”
Get out of town! Next thing you know, they'll be telling us that early arthropods had chitinous exoskelotons and oxygenated blood, just as they do today.

What?!
They had chitinous exoskeletons?
Those fiends!
*chuckle*
I especially like the quote, "My mind is a little blown."
It's as if they expected something else, like maybe a cheese danish.

Odd, isn't it...These little wonders of flight didn't evolve like everything else??? I thought maybe they started out as a prehistoric pig...But then what did pigs evolve from...
I have heard that pigs did fly...

They were lost for quite a long time, I see.

Once an organism has attained an advantageous phenotype there is little opportunities for mutations to be beneficial and its evolutionary path takes a slow walk until the ENVIRONMENT changes. If an environmental change adversly affects the organism any offspring with mutations that help adapt to this environment change will survive and thrive.
Or you can beleive that a magician conjured up dolphins and made a mistake of first putting them on land.

I was always under the impression that there ARE NO humming birds on the continent of Europe. Hmmmmm.....

Must be very sad being stuck in a futuristic, technological era.

though assumed to be 30 million years old...I've done a lot of lab work. If I put ina report "well, I assume this X years old.." I'd have to go sit in the corner with a conical hat on.
Me thinks someone geeked the number of zeros in their carbon dating.

Such silliness!!!
You can't have it both ways. If it is 30 million years old, creationism is wrong. If it is recent, then it should look like modern humming birds and evolution isn't involved.

If a species does change over time, it's proof of creationism. If it does not change over time, that too proves creationism. Either way ...

That'd be very difficult. Carbon dating only goes back 50,000 years or so.

Stop bringing logic into this. You know that does not apply to this debate, silly.
