Evolution in action, in real time.

I'd also have to take issue with your micro-evolution versus speciation claims. So no one is under any doubt, micro evolution specifically refers to changing gene frequencies within a given population of organisms. This is of course easily verifiable but is only a "fact" in each instance it is observed to occur. Everything beyond changing gene frequencies may be refered to under various different umbrellas within the theory of evolution. Changing skin tone or feather colours within a population would not qualify as micro evolution. And while micro evolution is an accepted scientific term, macro evolution is not. Speciation is an observed phenomenon, particularly in micro orgs and plants, but the speciation of humans is not. However the credibility of someone believing that humans somehow didn't speciate when various other organisms have been shown to have done so is similarly stretched as in believing gravity may not have applied at the Battle of Agincourt. Certainly possible to believe so, but 'twould raise a few eyebrows.
