	Well, I hate to post this here(it really belongs in net.origins),
but the last statement above is incorrect, we *do* see exactly those
processes which evolutionary theory leads us to expect going on today!
It is only the unreasonable expectation that evolutionary change
should be *obvious* on a human timescale that leads to the conclusion
that evolutionary changes are not taking place now!
