Thanks for the comments Nick. I think what I am attempting
to articulate is that I don't see how any species can apply
the DA and not conclude that its extinction is imminent. Can you
provide details or characteristics of an entity and its species
where the entity could apply the DA to its situation and not
reach the "doom" conclusion?
