[AccessD] The coming in-memory database tipping point. - SQL Server Team Blog - Site Home - TechNet Blogs

I certainly can't agree with that at all, Stuart.

Unless you can extinguish (or at least sterilize) all other animals outside
those breeding environments, and unless you can guarantee all the offspring
and the offspring's offspring of those breeding subjects live up to or
beyond your definition of evolutionary scale ... then you cannot call that
evolution in action. As otherwise, there is no guarantee that either they
will breed on into the future rather than some massive infection (such as
based on human water supply) kills off the people and those domesticated
animals die off as a result, and all the ones in the wild continue the
evolution instead.

Evolution is about winners, not contenders. 

As a matter of fact, I think evolution (which I believe is morphing of
species, not among species) is nonsense anyway.

;-)

Tell them to look at domestic and farm animal breeds (especially dogs) if
they want to see 
evolution in action.
