Leave Paup Snith alone. He should remain underrated, that's part of his charm. He's an 'Elite-level Oisin ***an' with Wayne Alexanders power and George Chuvalos chin, let's keep him a secret, and not like when Limp Biscuits was at no.1 with 'Rollin' :deal
I looked up Paup on Wikipedia: PAUP (Phyogenetic Analaysis Using Parsimony) is a [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_phylogenetics"]computational phylogenetics[/ame] program for inferring evolutionary trees ([ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phylogenetics"]phylogenies[/ame]), written by David L. Swofford. Originally, as the name implies, PAUP only implemented [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsimony"]parsimony[/ame], but from version 4.0 (when the program became known as PAUP*) it also supports [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_matrix"]distance matrix[/ame], and [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_likelihood"]likelihood methods[/ame]. Version 3.0 ran on [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh"]Macintosh[/ame] computers and supported a rich, user-friendly graphical interface. Together with the program MacClade[1], with which it shares the NEXUS data format[2], PAUP was the phylogenetic software of choice for many phylogenetists [3]. Version 4.0 added support for Windows (graphical shell and command line) and Unix (command line only) platforms. However, the graphical user interface for the Macintosh version requires Classic, which is no longer supported by Mac OS X 10.5 and later. There is a command line version of PAUP* for Intel-based Macs. :huh (No mention of Paup's lofty WBO rating)
I fear Sames ReJail may have edited it out in some kind of jealous fury. Despite Sames' one sided victory, it's obviously Paup who's glittering away in the media spotlight. :think
Surely you've heard of; Paup "the phylogenetic software" Snith? I guess he really is under the radar.
