Here they use 300 billion years to show the imporobability.
My personal opinion on this subject comes back to how I've always felt. Which is in really have no personal opinion towards it. This theory didn't change anything. So... yeah.

I tried to explain in my original reply why his 200 piece argument is silly. He is looking at the probability of a very specific combination coming into existence - that has nothing to do with what is happening with evolution - organisms aren't aiming for an arbitrarily picked combination, anything that gives them a reproductive advantage will do. We can observe natural selection going on everywhere, and as I mentioned with viruses and bacteria the time scales are much shorter. Bacteria becoming resistant to a specific antibiotic is just one example.
