Martin, 1997

Ah, but no. Since he was too ignorant to correctly root his tree,
we must do it for him:
This sentence seems to have generated some confusion, for which I apologize.
I didn't want to imply general ignorance. Dr. Martin has done and published
quite a bit of research on which he quite clearly knows more than I. I just
wanted to point out that he didn't know how to root a cladogram, even though
this belongs to the uttermost basics of cladistics. In other words, he made
a cladogram and published it without knowing that he didn't know how to make
a cladogram. -- Naturally I don't know how much he has learned since 1997.
