"Today, we call them LIBERALS."

Dang! Why didn't I think of that? Sloping forehead, vacant stare, hand out, salivating heavily when a free meal is presented. How could I have missed that?

The French are the offspring of the inter-mingling between Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens, so they're not 100% human.

The fossil in Spain from 24,000 is an early modern human child with some Neanderthal characteristics. The latest Neanderthal fossil remains that I'm aware of are the 28,000 year old specimans from Vindija, Croatia.

Actually, some sceintists have theorized that the gene for red hair is inherited from the Neanderthals. I reckon that would make the Irish the Neanderthals.

"That was interesting and I learned something new, to boot."

Tree-rings, which we have a record of for over 10,000 years now, is helping with these calibrations.

As a redhead, I've done some research and I am told that red hair was introduced to Ireland by Viking raiders

Red hair is not just a European phenomenom. Australian Aboriginals and Melanasians also have a percentage of red haired kinsmen.

Ya.....but do they have fair skin and freckles? Not the same gene as the Euro red haired beasts.

Yup. The Melanasians also have Cain and Abel type myths about tall, light-skinned, red-headed people.

Of course, all that that article says is that a gene associated with red hair is quite old; there is nothing to associate it with the Neanderthals.
