<< Another way to look at it is as a random walk process.  Evolution
tends to spread out organisms in all directions.  However, it started
with simple things and there is a lower bound to how simple an
organism can be and still be alive.  So there is necessarily an
increase in average complexity with time. Still, most things remain
simple.

If I am correct this is the Gould idea that he suggests as seen by a drunk
leaving a bar.
But this 'falls down' when you look at the option Gould never mentions. The
drunk lays down and does not move at all .
And this from a co-creator of punctuated equilibrium!
