Steve, to reply to your question about Chomsky. In 1970, I went to a
meeting of the AAAS where Chomsky spoke. I was very eager to hear him,
because, as you might remember, he was one of the leading, if not
loudest, critics of the Vietnam War, and I agreed with that criticism.
After he'd

I understand your point about Narrative better now with this post.

When we use the term *evolution*, we have something in mind that we all seem
to understand. But I'd like to ask this question: what is it that evolves?
We generally mean more by *evolution *than just that change

Good questions. I'm hoping Nick will speak up, but I'll hand wave a little, and
get more specific if he does not.
This is one of the points by which a whole host of conceptual confusions enter
the discussion of evolutionary theory. Often people do not quite know what they
are asserting,

Dear Victoria,
The word evolution has a history before biologists made off with it, but I
can't speak to those uses. I think it first came into use in biology to
refer to development and referred to the unfolding of a flower. The one
