 their environment, gradualism would be the best model for this process.

Therefore, both models are correct.

Well Rob-again that raised the old unanswered problem-from which the famed
commercial got it's hit slogan "Where's the beef"..."where's the fossil,
where's the fossil."
Grad. is plaqued by that problem and punk just seeks to avoid it.  What's
wrong with "Abrupt appearences."  I mean the record just says that. No more,
no less.
There they ain't-there they are!  It rhymes with the
biological,chemical,paleontological...al[lontologicals](snip!)
