What's wrong with evolution?

You don't like my joke? Pah.

Of course a piano can be played before it is constructed! Beethoven could have told you that!

Sounds like a band, maybe performance art electro?

No idea, but as demonstrated, it doesn't impact on my playing the piano.

But after you have finnished playing on the piano you still have just that, a piano. Nothing about the piano has changed...

So why would life not be now just as it was immediately after it was created?

Why would a piano evolve if you played on it?

What? You've managed to screw up a perfectly good metaphor with nonsense. If you're going to extrapolate, at least do it with some common sense. In the history of musical instruments there have been many types, sizes, redesigns etc. We do not still use the same instruments we once did. As such the playing styles have changed as has music.

Ditto.

Sure it can... Only thing is you would never hear anything while you played it, except of course in your imagination...

As Starmann probably plays in a performance art electro band, I'd probably give him the thumbs up.

The piano started off as the harpsichord, which was modified so as to produce more expressive music. The piano itself has not remained unchanged in three centuries. Player feedback contributed greatly to these design adaptations; the piano has changed as a result of being played.

It's more like I changed perfectly screwed up nonsense into a metaphor!

Your silly analogy holds no more water than it can keep to the note when you're playing it...

But each instrument was recreated and remained to be exactly what it was created to be.

It started off as a piano and ended as a piano...

They shouldn't allow people like you out in public or access to the internet 😞

For someone who's supposed to be a fisher of men, you're doing rather a good job as a troll.

Let someone else bite. Until then--bite me!

I know of a troll that caught a large quantity of fish...

Because he stayed under a bridge...

Actually I wished to compliment you...

Your analogy was rather fitting to microevolution...

It is. It was created to evolve, so it does.

Ah finally a true evolutionist...

Into what may I ask?[/b]

It can evolve into something different from what it was origionally.
