If you've read something which convinces you of divergent evolution or macroevolution or [[natural selection]] or anything like that, I hope you will summarize it in terms our readers can understand. Then they can look up any references you give which back up your summary. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 10:35, 2 May 2007 (EDT)

:Ed are you saying you did not understand the article? "Parallel diversification of Australian gall-thrips on Acacia." The very first sentence of the abstract "The diversification of gall-inducing Australian Kladothrips (Insecta: Thysanoptera) on Acacia has produced a pair of sister-clades, each of which includes a suite of lineages that utilize virtually the same set of 15 closely related host plant species." states the divergence. If you are not versed in scientific literature then let me know, I offer to rewrite the abstracts in layman's terms. I would have to mention about the science teacher comment, if your version of a science teacher failed that paper then they showed a lack of understanding of scientific literature and would not be capable to critique it. I have to take my son to the Dr.s so I will continue upon my return.--[[User:Tims|TimS]] 10:46, 2 May 2007 (EDT)
::I did summarize it. Divergant environment conditions causes populations to diverge. It's done virtually every day with bacteria, and very commonly with mice. [[User:Nematocyte|Nematocyte]] 10:40, 2 May 2007 (EDT)

:For all of this talk we still have not addressed the issue of the other two types of evolution being removed from this article.--[[User:Tims|TimS]] 10:32, 2 May 2007 (EDT)
