Rod, once again another area which you might rethink.  Hair is dependent on the rs-3 locus which encodes for the ectodysplasin-A receptor (EDAR), which is required for the initiation of hair development in mammals.  This locus is also essential for scale development in fish and reptiles.  This locus is the developmental precursor which follows a path similar to the Pax6 in eye development.  As for hair being well fossilized, it is in amber but in other types of fossils it fossilizes poorly.  Most fossils found in amber are of insects (due to the bugs eating or landing on the plant) not many higher animals are found in amber fossils, was [http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C06E7D61139F935A25757C0A960958260 one] of the rare instances that it occurred.  I know you are getting your information from AIG or ICR but follow up with it by searching pubmed.  You will see articles that have been researched and reviewed that sometimes conflict with AIG or ICR's claims.--[[User:Able806|Able806]] 09:01, 22 December 2008 (EST)

==Vestigiality==

Now I am begining to wonder about your purpose Rod, you have added yet again another false claim.  In humans, the coccyx, the plica semilunaris, the pseudogene L-gulonolactone oxidase among many other muscles that serve no current purpose but had purpose in the past are all considered vestigial structures.  To claim there are none in a human is false and further not supported by fact.  So back to the orginal purpose of this article, perhaps we could stick to the valid counterexamples to evolution, instead of those that have been shown to be false.--[[User:Able806|Able806]] 18:59, 25 December 2008 (EST)
