I've read the paper, and it's not actually disproving anything I 'postulated'. They admit to their potential for inaccuracy, and the level of 'assumption' made. Almost to never is close enough for me, I mean no-one alive today was actually there, were they?
You be 45% mushroom, makes no difference to me. I see the reconstructed face, and a person, therefore a relative. Closer than a fkn bonobo anyway.
I get ridiculously tired of people's woo-laden assertions and unfounded statements teetering on ignorance. Like this or the dark matter woo in an earlier thread.
I am not surprised you have fallen back to the "it-looks-to-me" position, as your statements earlier were thoroughly devoid of any notion on current neanderthal gene sequencing. I am aware of the annoying primate urge to breed with things but this is ridiculous.
Yeah, it is closer than a bonobo. Whoop de fucking doo. It is much more relevant to talk about the gene exchange between chimps and early humans that lasted up to a thousand years, as it is proven. What you are talking about is weakly asserted. I don't need you to add to that - I have Pippy for that.
And seriously, the "no one was alive then" argument? Go die in a fire. I am so fucking sick of that old trope - just because you weren't personally there doesn't mean you cannot understand what occurred.
Alcohol question is unlinked to topic at hand - discarding.
