"Socrates said, 'The unexamined life is not worth living,' so we're examining it," Mr. Brown said the other day, having spent two hours "in colloquy," where the discussion drifted from Daedalus to whether washing dishes constituted slavery.
Furthermore, a discussion on drifts, as one of the main modulation processes, are given as well as how drift effects manifest in near Earth observations.
A more fundamental reason for a discussion of drift here in an entry on natural selection is the view that drift is the zero-force background against which evolutionary forces, including natural selection, act (Brandon 2006).
The whole discussion, unfortunately, drifted into a muddle of anecdotes without any firm grip on the semantics of cool.
Discussions then drifted toward the matter of confiscating land from the Greek Orthodox monasteries in Romania (their sizable properties and traditional tax exemptions had been the subject of controversy ever since the Phanariote period).
In light of the discussion about the drift upon generic drug substitutions, we have previously conducted indirect comparisons to evaluate generic-generic drug interchangeability using gabapentin and topiramate as test medications [ 9].
If genetic drift can affect phenotypic divergence in characters such as throat color which are often genetically correlated with other traits (see discussion above), genetic drift could potentially indirectly also change the optimal strategies for the remaining morphs since the selective environment will change if one morph and its strategy is removed.
Consistent with earlier discussion of clinical drift, individuals on medication for less than two months reported significantly lower satisfaction with both the effectiveness and side effects of their medication than those on medications for a longer period (68.3, sd 18.8 vs. 74.4, sd 17.2, F df) = 8.57(1), p =.004; 84.6, sd 16.4 vs. 88.4, sd 14.2; F df) = 4.76(1), p =.03 respectively).
