In response to the recent discussion concerning a colony having the ability
to detect undesirable heritable traits at an early stage, and therefore
terminate development of the 'animal', Mike asked "Larvae, or pupae?"
 Good question. Clearly this has been mislabeled. However, this may be more
than just nit picking. I seem to recall that when I was first learning
evolutionary genetics as a college freshman (1958...big sigh), Russian
students of the same age were stuck the Pavlovian determinations of
genetics, which set back Russian biology by at least 30 years.
 Personally, I will be very cautious in accepting this information. I want
to be certain we haven't traveled this road under a different name.
