chicken and egg

Quelle volte che l'ho detto io ridevano,
questo e' finito sulla CNN solo perche' e' professore in evoluzione genetica!

Cito dall'articolo:
Put simply, the reason is down to the fact that genetic material does not
change during an animal's life.
Therefore the first bird that evolved into what we would call a chicken,
probably in prehistoric times, must have first existed as an embryo inside an egg.
Professor John Brookfield, a specialist in evolutionary genetics at the University
of Nottingham, told the UK Press Association the pecking order was clear.


Su slashdot la cosa e' poi stata ottimamente commentata con:
"So, does this mean we can now show P = NP ?"
