The mutual infertility of the individuals within group B increases according to the same genetic drift that underlies the development of mutually fertile group A into (prospectively) mutually fertile group B.

[/ QUOTE ]

Infertility with respect to whom?

[/ QUOTE ]

Each other.

[/ QUOTE ]

Each other at the individual level?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes.

[ QUOTE ]
Are you being vague on purpose?

[/ QUOTE ]

No.

[/ QUOTE ]

Then who do they mate with?

[/ QUOTE ]

That's just my point.

[ QUOTE ]
How many generations would you say this infertility takes to get to?

[/ QUOTE ]

About the same number of generations separating the mutual fertility of group A and group B.

[/ QUOTE ]

So you have a group of individuals where none of them can mate with each other?

And in the 2nd response, where do you get that idea from?
