Pardon?? >>

I meant that when people talk about evolution, I tend to believe that the use
of the lable <primitive> should be avoided because primitive has a negative
connotation and does not, in the context of evolution, mean the same thing as
primitive in English.  I propose using the term <non-derived> in place of
<primitive> because it does not already bear the negative connotation that
primitive does and is more correct in its name.  The same should aply to
<advanced> being replaced by <derived>.
