The BS meter just got pegged on that one. How would small groups of humans living across a large continent find eachother to “re-unite” 70K years ago? Cell phones??

Of course they didn’t have cell phones, they used coconut phones.

Shoes.

Then bicycles.

Then drive in movies.

There's a logical progression here if you take a long term look.

Perhaps rather than scattered all over, a small group of humans survived in a few -- maybe just one -- protected areas.

It turns out that this article is not about people uniting in holy matrimony to outbreed the deadly bubonicplanus plagueparenthood. Based strictly on Wendy's comment, the article, which I may or may not have read, may or may not touch on the autoevolution of the telecommunications system, which curiously displayed its own Intelligent Design aspects.

Astonishing, I know. You see, 72,000 years ago, seashells evolved spider-web-like cords to help keep them together in colonies. Then, 70,000 years ago humans discovered that they could be stretched and would carry sound, long before tin cans with string were invented.

Or something like that.

Maybe.

I wasn't there.

Neither were the evolutionists.

/sarcasm.
