It isn’t always easy to find, but you can check the serial number. This will usually be inscribed on the right side (facing) of the mandible. Newer models, though, will generally have it on a titanium plate riveted to the upper part of the femur.

Yeah, how do we know anything? Why can't we just stop finding out about stuff and just believe in everything that is written in the Bible?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Better than your attempt, especially since you misused ‘Mesolithic’.
Nice job editing your post, though. Dodged a definitional bullet, you did.

We talked to them through dead ouija boards.

I'm tired of this childish bullshit. And you should stop, too, Boru.
