  1. Another typically informative and charming lesson, thanks. The importance of gene duplication for evolution, at all levels, including the whole genome, cannot be overstated: it's fundamental. Other examples (as I'm sure you know) are our color vision and blood types. Creationists often argue that the information in a genome cannot increase through evolution, but that's because they don't recognize duplication and subsequent evolution of new alleles. cheers from sunny Vienna, Scott

  2. Very nicely done, subscribed. It's nice to hear the contribution of George Cuvier to our knowledge being acknowledged- he is largely responsible for laying the foundations of evolutionary theory. cheers from sunny Vienna, Scott

  3. Another great video. I know the basics from my paleo minor at UC Berkeley many years ago, but you have managed to explain current research very well. Thanks from rainy Vienna, Scott

  4. That's clickbait if I ever saw it. But of course it's justified. Being 72, I've been privileged to see many revisions of our view of dinosaurs. A lot has changed since I was taking upper division paleo classes in the seventies. Nice work as usual. Lunch is on me if you're ever in town. cheers from sunny Vienna, Scott

  8. Who among us hasn't wondered what happened to the four tusked elephants? Nice work as usual. I work a fair amount with mammoth tusk, which is used as a substitute for elephant ivory. It's a funny feeling, drilling a hole in something that was part of an animal so long ago. Keep up the good work. Cheers from sunny Vienna, Scott
