Random Quote
Two organisms may maintain the same feature because both inherited it from a common ancestor. These are homologous similarities, and they indicate 'propinquity of dissent,' to use Darwin's words. Forelimbs of people, porpoises, bats and horses provide the classic example of homology in most textbooks. They look different, and do different things, but are built of the same bones. No engineer, starting from scratch each time, would have built such desperate structures from the same parts. Therefore, the parts existed before the particular set of structures now housing them: they were, in short, inherited from a common ancestor.

Wow! This has to be the first time for ages that a Pharyngula post hasn't elicited any comments....
Doh!

In that case, off-topic: the site is still getting hit by occasional advertising spam, eg the last 2 comments here. I'm guessing that PZ Minions can't do clean-up (and one of those posts pre-dates them anyway).

And yet more attacks incoming (on a different old entry).

This thread seems to be a long-standing spammers' favourite but they're tunnelling backwards or something.
