I was trying to find out the definition for homoplasy. So I googled, and the following results showed up.
After clicking on the first result, which seems to be a definition page for homoplasy on a evolution related wiki, I was redirected to this Baylor College of Medicine acceptable use reminder page.
Oh, wow. So http://wiki.cotch.net/index.php/Homoplasy and EvoWiki are malicious? I am kind of intrigued by the implementation of BCM's web filter now.
By the way, homoplasy means "homoplastic condition; similarity of structure produced independently by the operation of similar external circumstances.", according to Oxford English Dictionary. More on it at wikipedia and Kyoto University.
