Evolution Sarkar slams Stein, while Kimbo kicks arse… 20 Apr 2008 Biologist and philosopher Sahotra Sarkar is combative, to say the least.

I think he sees his arse from the inside. If I may repeat a joke that I wrote at Dispersal of Darwin: “I have never seen a half-human/half Fox-Commentator, so perhaps Beck has a point about evolution.” Ba dum-bum.
The truth (whatever that is), reason, or an understanding of logical, sound thinking. Probably eats white chocolate. Barbarian.
But, leaving aside the anatomical jokes, about which I shall not deign to mention that he farts when he sneezes, he can hardly see his arse without a — what do we call it? — oh, yes, tht’s it — a rear-view mirror. Could he master such a piece of modern technology?

I find it faintly puzzling that your DNA sequence link goes to Britten’s odd little paper rather than to the much better Chimpanzee Genome Consortium paper, here, which makes your point much more strongly. Of course Beck hasn’t seen either of them, and wouldn’t know what to do with either of them anyway.
