A biologist disagrees with the mathematicians at that Wistar Symposium back in 1966 which some cretastrophists love to quote:

But the point the biologists want to make is that that isn't really what is going on at all. We don't need 120 changes [in hemoglobin -- VR] one after the other. We know perfectly well of 12 changes which exist in the human population at the present time. There are probably many more which we haven't detected, because they have such slight physiological effects...[so] there [may be] 20 different amino acid sequences in human hemoglobins in the world population at present, all being processed simultaneously...

probably ...[may be]

Gee Vade, who can argue with such positively unrefutable scientific arguments!

You need to post more, I need a few laughs.
