Post question for Vander

You had mentioned in the chromosome thread:
Quote:

c. It is amazing, then, that some Darwinist biologists confidently employ calculations based upon the sequence differences as a "molecular clock" in determining the length of time back to the common ancestor.
As might be expected, there is wide disagreement among those who perform independent analysis. The long and short estimates for the initial divergence of animal phyla differ by 530 million years, which is approximately the same as the estimate for age of the Cambrian explosion.
It is therefore difficult to place any weight on such methods as a positive demonstration of Darwinism. [references available upon request]
I and at least a couple of others took you up on your offer to provide references, yet I could not find them anywhere in that thread.

Do you plan on presenting them so that I and others can verify their content and relevance?
