On Evolution
It seems like change is definitely a component in the evolution process. In order to survive, species have to change to adapt to the environment. I wonder as a species, how much humans have evolved since 5000 years ago? If 1,000 years later, humans have genetic changes (which with all the radiation and chemicals that we are bringing forth to ourselves on a daily basis, this idea doesn't seem too far-fetched), then, I wonder, will all the principles we learn from classical chinese medicine text still apply?

Donna,
This is an intersting idea to ponder. If we, as a species, are causing so much damage to the environment and we are not evolving fast enough for our bodies to be able to deal with the environmental toxins that we are creating, does this mean that we will have an inevitible demise because the damage of our outer ecosystem is going to eventually cause permenant damage to our inner ecosystems?
