Sorry. President Barack Hussein Obama is history’s boldest hoax.

And, worst of all, they’re still in their jobs.

JAMES MOORE:...in Germany, quarrymen working in the Neander Valley, made a remarkable find... named "Neanderthal" and Germany the birthplace of early man. But soon evidence of early man was being found in France and Spain as well. To their annoyance, the British had none. I would have been kind of hard for the Neanderthals to wander over there considering almost all of the British Isles were under ice.

Thanks for the link. Looks like a few Neanderthals made it to Britain. The dates are confusing, though. The article says the specimen was 400,000 years old, “before” the end of the last ice age. Actually, that would have been several climate cycles ago.

I couldn’t find the topic (didn’t look tremendously hard), but another Neandertal skull was plucked from the seabed of the North Sea. Areas which used to be dry land during glaciation were also habitations.

I read someplace that every time the ice retreated man or our ancestors tried to colonize Britain but every attempt fails when the ice comes back south. I think he said he found evidence of seven attempts.
Of course, AGW has defeated the climate cycle, so it couldn't possibly happen again . . . .
