Default Re: going back hundreds of millions of years

Here's something that get's me tweaked:

I have two parents, and they each have two parents, and they each have two parents...If I go back only 33 generations, then I exceed the entire planet's population.

So that family tree heirarchy can't be a good model, because we're all inbreeds from just a few generations ago?

Sorta makes the evolutionary model a shallow pond, doesn't it?
