re: #293 DEZes

Any gaps or flaws in a theory are at least normal.
Dinosaurs are for the most part a recent discovery, Darwin never had the chance to study them, but that does not prove his theory wrong or show flaws.
Are there missing links, well yes. A billion or so years is gonna cover cover up a whole lot of unknown and undiscovered life.
Nature has a way of hiding its past, not out of spite, just with change.

And when such a significantly small sample of past life expires in such a way as to avoid predation AND allow for preservation, it is not at all hard to understand why there are perceived missing links.
