"That suggests the New World was peopled by waves of different ethnic groups." The evidence is becoming over-whelming.

You're really a Trekkie -- I found the series far too PC and touchy-feely to retain my interest. Of course an android can be replicated endlessly so maybe the writers were having a little fun with us by using that name.

Yeah, I don't doubt it. It used to be believed that the Americas were peopled around 1000 BC, and it was professional suicide to suggest greater antiquity. When the Clovis finds suggested a much greater age, motion toward that idea was very slow until radiocarbon dating was available, at which point the new date became the new floor under which dates could not fall. I call this Clovis-First-and-Only, and while there are some who still cleave to it, it is dead now.
