Must be... so that scientific observation can remain within what you call "micro-evolution", huh?

Indeed you did... I'd forgotten:

No intermediary species? I wonder how someone could come up with this graph:
(it's huge, so I'll hide it)
Here are some examples from our own evolution:
Can you not see the features developing from top to bottom?
Brain size increases, jaws recede and become smaller? no? can't see it? I doubt you can't see it... considering how you can comprehend the complexity in DNA...

There is a big problem in sexually reproductive species, when they have a single breeding pair. Cheetahs were (or still are) close to this situation. This generally leads to a decreased biological fitness of a population[4][5] (called inbreeding depression), which is its ability to survive and reproduce. An individual who inherits such deleterious traits is referred to as inbred.]Inbreeding results in homozygosity, which can increase the chances of offspring being affected by recessive or deleterious traits.[3] This generally leads to a decreased biological fitness of a population[4][5] (called inbreeding depression), which is its ability to survive and reproduce. An individual who inherits such deleterious traits is referred to as inbred.
So, it seems very unlikely that any species, humans included, were ever limited to a single pair of breeding specimens. It would have always been a population-wide effect.

That would be mitochondrial RNA that is only passed down in the egg from the female side.
And, if I remember correctly, they've traced mitochondrial RNA back to an African population... not a single person
Doesn't mean the graph is accurate or correct.

Are alligators and crocodiles different kinds?
What about octopus and squid?
Crocodiles and alligators are same genus so same kind. I believe the same is true for octopus and squid.
