Bruce,
Just give it some time and let the story spread. Remember the old game
of telephone or telegraph, where you whisper something in your neighbors
ear then they do the same until "the something" comes back around to
you.
Well the story is now spreading and in a short time the news will pick
it up and 'quote' a reliable source who heard from someone else that
this is proof positive; the missing link.
Then we will have to waste time retracing the "who said what to who" to
find where the "link" started breaking down.
It's an interesting discovery and only that. If the paleontologists
would remove their blinders and not chase a smoking gun, more truth my
come forward from this discovery.
Blinders have a way of distorting facts. It happens all the time in
almost all professions.

I can't find in the article where they call it "the missing link that
proves evolution". The closest I can find is that it "gives the clearest
glimpse yet of the evolutionary moment when fish fins transformed into
limbs and species began to move onto land."
The "Evolutionary Missing Link" subject was mine. I wasn't referring
specifically to the missing link between modern man and their
predecessors but this other link between land animals and the earlier
water animals which is also one of the evolutionary gaps that people who
disagree with Darwin's theory like to point out.
