anyone who formats their code like this should be summarily executed

gistfile1.java

        for(int q=start;q<n+start;q++)
            {
            IntegerVectorIndividual i = (IntegerVectorIndividual)inds[q];
            for(int x=0;x<i.genome.length;x++)
                if (state.random[thread].nextBoolean(species.mutationProbability))
                    i.genome[x] = -i.genome[x];
            // it's a "new" individual, so it's no longer been evaluated
            i.evaluated=false;
            }
        return n;
        }

I'll be the trigger man. That, or I'll bring chips.
