For the last seventy-five years, I have watched myself evolve from a baby to an old goat. Does that count?
Not quite, but your ontological development in the womb is a good model of evolution. We go through all the stages from single cell, to fish, amphibian, mammal, human, in that developmental process. The old saying in biology is ontology recapitulates phylogeny.
I must have bypassed the fish part. Heck, I can't even swim and sure don't like worms!
The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.
