Cornell researchers have developed new statistical methods based on the complete genome sequences of people alive today to shed light on events at the dawn of human history.
They applied their methods to the genomes of individuals of East Asian, European, and western and southern African descent. They analyzed only six genomes, but made use of the fact that these genomes contain traces of genetic material from thousands of human ancestors, which have been assembled into new combinations over the millennia by genetic recombination.
The main finding of the study, published Sept. 18 in Nature Genetics, is that the San, an indigenous group of hunter gatherers from southern Africa, diverged from other human populations earlier than previously thought -- about 130,000 years ago. In comparison, the ancestors of modern Eurasian populations migrated from Africa only about 50,000 years ago.

Sans of time ping.
...and they will still not be able to find ANYTHING at all supporting being born gay, but hey, the man-made global warming lie had long legs....why not being born gay!
Where the Sans the ancestors of the Sans Serif?
Ping.
Shakespear’s 7 stages of man from As You Like It:
“Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.”
The Sans shot the serif. But not the calligraphy.
We spend much to much on this "stuff". It's guessing and guessing is not science.

Good point. Yes, you wonder.
The San definitely diverged from other humans before the invention of the Coke bottle, otherwise they wouldn’t have been mystified by one of them falling out of the sky.
You know that the biggest effort on all this genome voyeurism has been to find the link between monkeys and man. I’ll bet there are 1,000 scientists feverishly working to find the link. Wouldn’t they have found it by now? Shouldn’t it be easy?

Thanks decimon. This looks familiar, but I'm about to fall asleep and don't feel like checking. |

All they need to do is make a Game and Xbox do the rest.

What? Or, maybe why?
Also, the Bushmen are physically different than other people.It's better than being called "Bushbot". Oh wait, who are you talking about? ;')
