About Me

"Long before the human species appeared, the pinnacle of evolution was already the brain--as it had been before mammals appeared, before land vertebrates, before vertebrates. From this point of view, everything else in the multicellular animal world was evolved to maintain and reproduce nervous systems--that is, to mediate behavior, to cause animals to DO things. Animals with simple and primitive or no nervous system have been champions at surviving, reproducing, and distributing themselves, but they have limited behavioral repertoires. The essence of evolution is the production and replication of diversity--and more than anything else, diversity in behavior. -Theodore Bullock
