I thought about the title for just that reason, and finally decided it
was high
time to stir up an old controversy. :-)

I sometimes fish with Gummy Minnows and call it fly fishing, and
sometimes (very rarely) fish with bait using fly fishing gear and
don't call it fly fishing.

A fascinating distinction.

But is it real?

Watched it 27 times. New species count (thus far) = exactly zero.

Will continue observations. Will report new findings as they appear.

question of whether people ever take the time to read the brainless

Mimicry is one of the most compelling sources of evidence, among a
great many, in support of evolution by natural selection. It's
impossible (to my mind) to conceive of another naturalistic
explanation of it. Supernatural "explanations" are of course possible
-- God made the creatures that way for some strange reason beyond our
comprehension -- but I don't take those seriously, as anyone who isn't
willfully ignorant shouldn't. (Are you listenisng, Todd?)

I would have thought that, in light your apparent love of nature, you
would have found the video interesting, but given your well-known
delight in being a nasty asshole I'm not surprised that you didn't.
