Dwight,
I just read a summary of Mr. Burbrink's paper, and in the face of mounting evidence I will have to stipulate that DNA testing in this case might not be able to clear up the locality issue.
How convenient. That shoe can go on the other foot. If the locality can not be disproved by means of DNA that means that it likewise can not be proven. How is K.E. going to be able to prove the locality of his snakes? As K.E. even admitted in one of his posts, the burden of proof is not on the establishment (status quo), but rests squarely on the shoulders of the claimant. I believe if memory serves me that K.E. didn't even collect any of these specimens himself---rather he purchased them or received them as gifts. Where is the chain of evidence there? I guess it's like I said from the beginning. If one wants it to be true then one can find enough supporting evidence to convince oneself. Keep on deluding yourself Dwight. I'm sure you have a stake in it down the road. No doubt you wouldn't be objectionable to having another "hot new" Rat Snake morph to add to your offering (thus your predisposition to wanting it to be true).
Cheerio,
Saw
