Yes it was good with one problem. I don't think the pro-Lemurs floated to
Madagascar as suggested. Is it not clear that Madagascar separated from
Africa, moving east at the time that primate evolution was at that stage.
(Just like NZ has no mammals because it left Gondwana before their
development. Long before Madagascar separated from Africa.)
