Dueling theories.

[dog breath]

It is so difficult to understand clearly what happened sometimes a hundred years ago let alone thousands of years ago. I don't think that the Clovis people disappeared but got absorbed into some of the newer tribes which got absorbed again by even newer tribes. It is hard to determine the difference between genetic traces of early fur traders in studies and stone age Frenchmen. As to the large fauna disappearing, well people get hungry and something extra large sized could feed a whole village for awhile. Combine that with environmental stresses and things disappear. I don't think that a single spectacular event can be blamed for the changes that occurred.

All your links give me a 404

404 for me too.

bummer.

GREAT BEASTS PEPPERED FROM SPACE

The discovery follows on from the group's previous research which claimed a more recent space collision - some 13,000 years ago.

...The researchers reported the discovery of sediment at more than 20 sites across North America that contained exotic materials: tiny spheres of glass and carbon, ultra-small specks of diamond and amounts of the rare element iridium that were too high to be terrestrial.

The scientists also found a black layer which, they argued, was the charcoal deposited by wildfires that swept the continent after the space object smashed into the Earth's atmosphere...

There’s an extra /focus in each of them.

“There’s an extra /focus in each of them.”

Ok, assume I’m a techtard, since it’s a mostly true condition.

The extra focus, whatsat mean? Should I stare at it extra hard to make it work?

[naturalman1975]

Click on the link.

The page will open (with the error message saying it doesn’t exist) but the address will be in the address bar of your browser.

In that address will be a part that reads /focus/focus

Click on the address to edit out one of the /focus and now the address should take you to the page.

So

which doesn’t work.

Becomes

which does.

[Grimmy]

very cool. thanks.

Thanks but sheesh. We ain’t so lazy that we can’t delete a bit of /focus from a addy.
