to repeat:
Dr Pettitt said: "We aim to link Neanderthal extinction with the spread of modern man into Britain."
and to repeat something else:
The Neandertal Enigma
by James Shreeve
Frayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]

This will be useful info. By the time the Goreacle, 0, and the other dims get through with us cave living will be the only practical alternative.

Which is why it takes extra shots ~ and I know East Asians who have that problem ~ but they're kind of special ~ there's this range of mitochondrial DNA that NO ONE ELSE HAS.

AKIHITO probably has the problem.
