    Fascinating thread - for actual scientists

    Lynn Margulis has sent the opening statement for her blog tour below. You should feel free to respond to it, raise other questions of any relevant sort, or say whatever you want in the comments; she'll be along later today to respond to those that interest her. I will be policing the comments, so trolls, please don't bother; serious comments only, and keep in mind that she's only going to respond to a limited subset, so make 'em good.

    I don't know if she answered the epigenetics question, I'm still reading, long thread, but the thread got right into her controversial statements vis a vis HIV/AIDS and the evidence of, or lack of, a causal connection. It looks like it stayed on that and became quite political. We are transitioning from the era of the religious into the political. Her answers are revealing none the less.
