Point taken but while we are on the subject let me remind you that random
mutation is a fairly minor factor in evolution. Genetic drift or changes in
the distribution of genes in a population accounts for far more of the
diversity we see in nature than mutation. Darwin's finches for example were
not different because of mutation.
