Thanks for taking the time to look over Darwin’s Error, Sonny, and thanks for taking the time to post your comment. Sorry, I know it is a bit difficult to read the white on black text on this page — selecting the “Switch to White” button in the upper-right-hand corner of this page should help; you may also want to increase font-size through your browser window.

RE: Antarctica. Yes, you may imagine that I come up against this argument on a regular basis — and the irony is that, once upon a time, I spent a year writing what I hoped would become the ultimate save-the-west-antarctic-ice-sheet eco sci-fi adventure — if you’re up for a tour through a paper that tells this tale, it’s linked below Darwin’s Error (above): On the Truly Noncooperative Game of Life on Earth: In Search of the Unity of Nature & Evolutionary Stable Strategy. In short, in the end, I concluded that life is not a choice between good and bad, but between bad and worse! :-)

Thanks again for reading and posting your comment and the great quote!

I am having a hard time reading small white font on black. :)
Here is one for You:
