Ah, but "experts" defended Piltdown, Kinsey's research, cold fusion, spontaneous generation. "Experts" mocked Pasteur.

Most genuine progress is controversial at first, but in due course the most accurate theory will prevail. And most frauds fool a few people at first; but in due course the experts will expose it. So what's your point? You think we should ignore experts and rely only on the opinions of the ignorant?

This flows from the same font of ignorance that produced the title for this thread, "..weed shows Darwin was right." The evidence produced hasn't shown that conclusively at all. It hasn't even stood the scrutiny of a few simple questions, and even its defenders are backed up against a wall, where they are forced to rely on the reassurance of the "experts." If you want to show this as a proof of the evolutionary process, do your homework.
