Yes I always subscribed to the following:
""The outstanding scientific discovery of the twentieth century is not television, or radio, but rather the complexity of the land organism. Only those who know the most about it can appreciate how little we know about it. ...If the biota, in the course of aeons, has built something we like but do not understand, then who but a fool would discard seemingly useless parts? To keep every cog and wheel is the first precaution of intelligent tinkering."" but now things have changed a bit in that I was recently told that biodiversity can be "manufactured" by humans and genetic engineers.
Where does this leave us?
