You mean it thinks its zooming in on the origins of modern humans? So far, alot of the more controversial pronouncements are being proven wrong just a few years later. Reminds me of peking man and alot of other so called early humanoids, which have been proven fake at a later date.

You need to do some research. Peking Man was not a fake.

Near as I can remember, the closest to a fake was the Piltdown Man hoax.

Can you support your contention?

(Hint: Don't rely on the creationist websites, as they are full of mis-information on this topic.)

That's how science advances.

In fact, that how everything advances,

two steps forward, one step back

two steps forward, two steps back,

three step forward, and so on.

The kind of advance in knowledge you are looking for will not occur in this life.

That's rather an overstatement. It's more accurate to say that it has been shown that the full picture is more complicated than the one narrow "slice" of the picture that various prior studies have produced.
