So these findings help us "understand the evolution of the insect-spider predator-prey relationship,"

From their description, it isn't apparent that much "evolution" has taken place. Same size as now, same environment as now, same type of prey as now. 165 million years of evolution and its the same old same old. But, hey, it helps us better understand the evolution of it all.

No wonder the dinosauers are extinct. They probably gave up in disgust when these guys showed up. Can’t blame ‘em.

So where is the evolution, they still look the same today?

And for what cause is it that spiders stayed spiders and the ape family did not? I have seen TOE artwork and the ape family must have hybridized with something to have such extreme change... Globull warming must have always been with us.

The funnest thing is creeping through marshy woods at night and walking into a tree-spanning web, with the spider smacking you right in the face, all cold and flabby.

That’s why I learned as a boy to hike at night with a stick held up in front of my face!
