Posada

 * If it is, then you're sunk, since Posada's clear statement clearly states that rearrangement of existing genetic variation creates novel variants; ie, more variation, and an increase of information. Tsumetai 17:25, 19 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Hmmm ... interesting how you added "and an increase of information" to the Posada statement. Would you please cite where in the Posada article you found that phrase? Thanks. David W. Hawkins

The semicolon indicates a new clause. The "ie," is a clue that what follows is not a quote, but rather a statement of what the preceding part of the sentence means. --Wesley R. Elsberry 07:48, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the English lesson. And surely it has not escaped you that this means he is now inserting his POV as to what he thinks Posada meant? Afdave 21:50, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
