That's a strawman or a lie. We'll find out which it is, if this discussion continues. The appearances were neither sudden nor embarrassing.

Interesting, can U please shed more light on this claim.

Why do U think it is not sudden? I dont know about embarrassing ,tho.

I think I infered that earlier.

I think the point i was trying to make tht you responded to was on the differencies that would occur within an isolated pygmy population who miraculouslly were sbuplanted in the icelands compared to a pygmy population that remained in the interior of African in reference to Genotype and phenotype expressions 50, 000 years down the line.

If you feel my statement is incorrect please correct and explain.
I am not saying that your statement is incorrect,  I am only giving my own point of view , which is what it is, just a point of view.

The changes in phenotype of the explanted pygmies U  attributed to mutation,no?  undecided I am just saying that it is likely that it has nothing to do with with making new set of genes or alleles to adapt to the new environment but environmental pressure resulted in a selection of alleles of genes (that were already present) and this will manifest itself in some mild phenotypic differences.

Another explanantion, which again has nothing to do with mutation , is that of genetic drift which u actually raised in one of your posts.

And from the posts between U and Beaf, I think I understand now what U are trying to say, so I will just shut the Bleep up, lol,  .

Natural selection for erythrocytes carrying the sickle cell gene mutation causing sickle cell anaemia in areas where malaria is prevalent is a bad mutation though if could be considered to be a good mutation because the condition it grants its carries for some resistance to malaria

Mutations are not necessarily bad depending on their outcome. The bad ones are bred out the good ones are propagated.
Thats a classic example right there and I am glad U brought that up.

However, this always reminds me of the case of the chicken and the egg which came first? The difference between the sickle cell gene mutation and what is known as the normal gene is in just one amino acid (glutamic acid replaced by valine). That to me is a[b] highly specific change and not compatible with the random nature of spontaneous mutations[/b]. Is there any evidence against these two alleles co-existing side by side instead of the prevalent notion that the sickle cell gene came as a result of mutation of the "normal gene"? How do we even know which one is the normal gene and which one arose as a result of mutation?
PoliticsRe: Race And Intelligence by Uche2nna(m): 9:32pm On Oct 28, 2009
morpheus24:
Mutation occur within Selective pressure!
Again like I said, very easy to misconstrue the two,

Let me try and put it this way,

Mutations do not occur within selective pressure (mutation can and will always happen with or without selective pressure). U probably would be better off saying that selective pressure occurs within mutations, and even that will depend on what U believe is the origin of allelic variations in nature.

GENES REACT TO ENVIRONMENT. THEY MUTATE.

After 1,000 years their genes will mutate as a result of interaction with the enviroment and available dietry.
After 5,000 it will continue to mutate in response to climatic conditions and nutritional intake
After 10,0000 the gene make up of these groups depending on selective breeding patterns will not be the same
If the selective breeding patters continue to foster a phenotype that is parallel to the enviroment their physical characteristics will change.

20,000 years on the pygmies of iceland will not resemble the pygmies of 30,000 years ago.
It seems u are mixing up selective pressure and mutation. They are two very different processes and most times result in opposite effects.

99 percent of mutations in an organism are deleterious and most times the organism with those mutations fails to make it to the next generation.

How will you reply when you've got nothing to say. Just leave it to your tag-team partner.Have you finished? You still don't get the point- do you? The issue here is GLOBAL WARMING- so stop your GLOBAL WHINING. All countries that want to combat it do it out of concern for the future as there are no immediate gains. All methods
There are TONNES of ways Nigeria and Nigerians can help reduce global warming without having to chase a white elephant project. How can U be talking about going green in a country where almost three quarters of the cars on the road are so old that they emit carbon monoxide. What about the noise/emissions of generators that surround every nook and cranny. Pure water jackets littered everywhere, nko?

Please dont make it sound as if elecrtic cars are the be all and end all of our pollution problems cos it is not,,,,

Germany of today plans to introduce one million electric cars by 2020. The German branch of the environmental group WWF carried out a study showing that in the[b] best possible scenario[/b] those 1 MILLION cars will be cutting down gas emissions by 1 percent and the overall nation carbon dioxide emiision will be cut by 0.1 percent. U are welcome to draw ur own conclusions.

Purist:
Do you guys honestly think that those who proposed this idea haven't thought of all you're arguing here?  Or you think all there is to the project is what you've read in the newspaper article?  Do you really think that they are oblivious of the electricity problems in Nigeria?  I expect all of us to be asking meaningful questions about this project, instead of condemning it outrightly.  Some are even calling Fashola names already.  Certainly, this is beyond contempt for the seemingly "ridiculous" project.  It appears lots of people are envious that Lagos (Fashola) is perhaps the only state in Nigeria making positive headlines.
LOL, trust Nigerians to turn every argument into[i] "my own beta pass ur own"[/i]. Someone even went as far as defining it along ethnic lines

No matter babapupa and his cohorts say, the facts are there to see. No state in this present day Nigeria has what it takes embark on an electric car project. At this point, thats more a liability on our meagre resources. We have more pressing problems than that.

It bugs me that babapupa will keep on saying that generating electricty is not Fashola's portfolio. One wonders then how he will power those cars? If he can generate power for those cars, then he sure can generate power 24/7 for the whole of lagos.

If he loves the environment so much, then maybe he should start with replacing all the Govt owned SUV's with fuel efficient cars like Golf.

babapupa:
What's your point? because the state is proposing electric cars doesn't mean they are not spending money on your everything you listed.
No meaningful development is immune to errors and you can not progress without vision and taking the necessary steps. You have to start from somewhere.
What is development without reasoning? I will tell U what, absolute chaos!!!

Do U jump onto the band wagon because thats the trend ? Alternative energy is the craze now but at what pricehuh

And given that Nigeria is a country that has  deeply entrenched the culture of maintenance and waste disposal, I am sure that those advocating for electric cars at this point have come up with very safe startegies to dispose of , say, the , batteries which by the way is not your normal lead acid battery. We all know how well dispose of the normal lead acid battery in Nigeria.

I am sure that the progressive minded guys like babapupa have come up with strategies to also minimise road mishaps cos with all the electricity surging throu an electric car , U can only begin to imagine what will happen if one of those cars happen to be involved in an accident.

U dont have to import electric cars to prove that U are ecofriendly,  Just take care of all the pure water jackets lying around the city and U will be as ecofriendly as south pole.

What u have embarked on is what they call self defecation of your own people, because your[b] fore fathers were also involved in slave trading.[/b]

Slavery is our communal heritage as West – Africans, your comments are not only immature but lacks any iota of sensitivity.

Interesting point of view.

Its a sensitive issue alright but not one we can hide from. Actually, its one of the points that the African Americans will raise anytime U enter into any kind of discourse with them on issues concerning race and heritage.

Why sweep it under the rug? It happened, it happened and yes, we as a race have to bear some of the responsibility or at least acknowledge that we didnt do our best to protect our own. That our fore fathers were involved in slave trade didnt and wouldnt in anyway make it right and it is not self defeacation in any form or manner if someone decides to discuss about what happened.
