Can anyone explain how the moth got it's owl eyes?

Thurston, you're among friends here.

We get heated at times, but things eventually blow over.

Eventually.

what information is in a snowflake?

Each snowflake contains a geometric pattern. A collection of lines and angles that can be expressed mathematically. Any hexagonal snowflake isn't perfectly symmetrical, but it contains a symmetry, where one section can mostly identify the shape of the other five sections. The snowflake pattern can be used to identify the temperature and humidity around the snowflake as it formed, which is certainly information.

This thread had a clean up. Some posts were flaming and some had profanity, and others were responding to posts now deleted.

Keep it civil. ​

"Information" is a mathematical way of categorizing and describing patterns and shapes in nature. The information is the shape of the snowflake--just like DNA information is the shape of the molecule.

If your into poetry at all, you'll find a fair amount of interesting information in snowflakes there.

Don't feel like reading 38 pages of posts. Have you guys hashed out how the moth got it's owl eyes, yet?

Many of us have. One of us refuses to listen.

That sounds like an acceptable amount of people to bring the discussion to a conclusion to me.

Sadly, since none of us are the OP, we can't get the thread closed down without violating some kind of rule in a big way.

Then I guess you will be doomed to post in this thread until the day you die.

A plan is irrelevant in this case.
You think a billion monkeys typing a billion letters per second on a billion typewriters is going To produce even just 1 legible page?

The internet has proven the answer to that question is a resounding “no.”

It might just be a sad and vain case of hopefulness and possible a blatant example of madness, but I do live in hope that OP will actually understand and listen to what people are telling him.

It's a slim chance but still...

I am not convinced. The thought experiment speaks of monkeys. We have tried only humans so far.

Owl eyes on a moth bewildered us all.
It's a clear act of God, said those in his thrall.
Then Darwin appeared, with an answer quite fine,
"T'is natural selection and nothing divine".

"Chance would prohibit", said the staunch YECs.
"Your appeal to the random is like a disease".
"Mutation is random, true, Science agrees,
But Natural Selection is quite the bees knees."

And so it emerges, with no end in sight,
That both sides insist only they're solely right.
But the moth keeps on flying, all through the night,
And the members of CF continue to fight.
And the monkeys keep scrambling with font type and other
And all I can think now is "Really! . . why bother".
