    Indeed. Natural selection is a tinkerer, a jury-rigger, a blind watchmaker
    that uses whatever is laying around and gives no thought to what it is

    happens to increase the likelihood that the stumbled-upon state will increase
    its representation in the pool. It is not an intelligent designer.
