Ugly Bump.
Well, that certainly clears up where Al Franken and Keith Obermann came from!
You see faces like that at heavy-metal rock concerts.
The species all get prettier at closing time.
When you start with a flawed theory, you are always having to look for the "best way" to explain the obvious, things that always seem to "surprise" you, but never enough so you wonder why you could be so "surprised" so often at the evidence not matching up with what the theory predicts.
Wasn't that sung by Mickey Gilleyanthropus??
I was either him or his close relative Jerry L Lewiserectus.
It.
You beat me to it.
“The ancient mitochondrial DNA came from a piece of finger bone, which the groups haven’t identified by species. It could be Neanderthal, a new Homo species or some other archaic form like H. erectus, who spread to Oceania by 1.8 million years ago.”
Let me see... they don’t know the species of the original DNA but they draw broad sweeping conclusions. LOL
Well, I guess the particular combo of genes is enough to give them that info. After all, it couldn’t be a hippo or an alligator with those genes...
You mean like Ted Danson and Whoopi Goldberg?

Thanks Pharmboy!To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.The Neandertal EnigmaFrayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127] |

Who is the dude in the dress?
Ya think?
Probably because the latest research says they were humans!
