This is why all of you deniers need to be rounded up and put into camps where you can’t interfere with the plans of your intellectual superiors. Isn’t this exactly what Pope Al warned us about: Its getting warmer, the oceans are going to expand, drowning all of our coastal cities and we are all doomed unless we embrace socialism now.

What’s that you say? Its already happened? The Earth got warmer, the glaciers melted, and we all had to move to higher ground. When? 10,000 years ago. Oh, never mind.

"There were people here actively making stuff and being quite industrious,"

Obviously doing stuff Americans won't do anymore.. Obviously their southern border was also very porous - let in too much water..

Scientists discovered the site accidentally 10 years ago, when lobsters mucking around the seabed revealed a cache of Mesolithic flints.

How'd they make the lobsters talk?

"Tell us where you found them flints boys or we'll boil you alive!"

Momber said at 8,000-years-old, the settlement was the only underwater Mesolithic site in Britain, though it was probably part of a much larger area of occupation yet to be uncovered.

I always question the professionalism and the integrity of any scientist who makes absurd absolute statements like that one.

is it too much trouble to state what is known?

...the settlement was the only [known] underwater Mesolithic site in Britain...

Is much more accurate. Totally different "larger area of occupation" may remain to be found.
