You obviously haven't really understood Punctuated Equilibrium. Also, most biologists, paleontologists, et al (evolutionists) figure a combination of Punctuated Equilibrium and Gradualism account for the plethora of life around us. There is no "brouhaha" over this.

Not another pathetic attempt to undermine my credibility. Punctuated Equilibrum says essentially that during periods of rapid geological/environmental change, species could evolve, disperse, adapt more rapidly to survive, and this effect is how Gould intended to account for the observations found in the Cambrian Explosion. Please, don't insult me. I haven't insulted you.

I'll assume you are aware then of what Richard Dawkins has to say about Punctuated Equilibrum as a theory, right? It's not flattering.
