This thread is the perfect example of a lack of understanding and thus non acceptance of firm data. Neapolitan, I applaud you getting in on the discussion but seriously... You don't understand what is going on fully. Either that or you are trying so hard to play devils advocate that it is coming off that way.
Trust me when I say a scientist's biggest critics are other scientists. Paper go through scrutinous reviews from peers and experts in the field so when the paper comes out, you can be fairly confident it represents a reliable piece of evidence towards the concept they are studying. Granted, this isn't always the case which is why we are still critical.
This study in particular seems like a solid bit of research. It doesn't prove evolution on a grander scale, but it is just one more piece of evidence (on top of mounds I other bits) that prove the concept.
