How about taking it out of bionet.molbio.evolution altogether? From the
BIOSCI/bionet homepage:
"BIOSCI promotes communication between professionals in the biological
sciences. All postings to the newsgroups should be made in that spirit.
While the general public may "listen in" to the discussions, these
newsgroups are intended primarily for communications between researchers.
There are other forums on Usenet such as sci.bio.misc for the asking and
answering of biological questions from lay persons. "
_That_ is what the sponsors of the bionet newsgroups (bless them) are paying
for. Crap like _this_ thread belongs in talk.origins.

It's all much appreciated. Out!
