Hi Mike,
Excellent post.....Thanks....

assuming that that can be duplicated on a comparatively immense scale is not logical...

It seems like we have some role reversal here. Mojo is arguing that evolution will occur in our silkworms. There is rationale for a loss of information because "nature doesn't like it." But once you make a change in the code, the likelihood that the code will change on its own is so mathematically small, that you can predict with an extremely high degree of certainty that it will not occur. If a negative change does occur, then the mutation will potentially exist until it is disposed of naturally or by a worker.(depending on how obvious the mutation is) Even though this negative mutation might exist, it by no means will be prevalent. You will still have many millions of silkworms that do not have the mutation. Mojo seems to think the exception will some how become the rule. There is overwhelming evidence that this will not occur, it never has.

"So you believe that if one silkworm can spin spider silk, and 1000 silkworms can spin spider silk, that perhaps 1 million genetically identical silkworms might not be able to spin spider silk? "

Mutating something short term on a small scale is no guarantee that it can be done on an immense scale over a long period of time with consistent results...that is what I said...do not reword it to make it appear I said otherwise...and that statement is not illogical...

"One of the classic definitions of madness is doing the same thing over and over again, with the same result each time, yet expecting a different result the next time you do it. "

Making a few mutated silk worms and then assuming you can do it millions of time over a long period of of time with no problems is madness?....lol

"Hundreds, perhaps thousands HAVE seen it! "

They have seen the large scale production, the results, with consistency?....no, I don't think so...

Scientists are thrilled at what Fraser has accomplished..they think it's wonderful...But they are not concerned with commercialization...as far as they are concerned, if kblb never sells a thread of silk and goes bk, Fraser will still have succeeded...

"This is not a matter of opinion or religion, this is Physical Reality! Measurable and Measured, Provable and Proven. "

The idea that kblb can produce commercial quantities consistently is not fact...
