Yes of course, we are part of the biosphere which is part of The 
Earth, but as part of a system can affect that system somewhat
and perhaps nucleate some change.

I noted that Arthur added some groups relevant to his post
retained when Guy followed up on him, and retained in
this one, but I am again directing followups to
rec.arts.sf.science   (though there is also a related thread
on talk.origins with some good replies as well).

Thanks for the feedback,
David
