It's been a few weeks now since John Hawks and his colleagues published their paper contending that the rate of human evolution has been speeding up during the last 40,000 years -- but scientists are still mulling it over, if GTO's scan of blogs is any indicator.

And it wouldn't be worth watching if John Hawks didn't defend himself, which he does here.
