Slow news flash - Annelida not 'dead'

[Kirk Fitzhugh]

Having just read Geoff Read's synopsis of Westheide (The direction of
evolution within the polychaeta. J. Nat. Hist. 31: 1-15.(1997)), here's
my initial response to those who want to rehash this age-old argument:
"ever hear of outgroup comparison??"

Seems like history always repeats itself just to come full circle...

Carry on,

Kirk
