Most of us go to the store now, it’s labor specialization. It’s been going that way since sometime before that recent revolutionary book by Adam Smith. ;’)

It’s not the law of averages, it has to do with China’s isolation from the sciences beginning with the Japanese invasion of Manchuria and not ending until Mao kicked off. The economic transformation Mao was never able or willing to accomplish has been underway for thirty or so years, and China’s got about a sixth of the world’s population and better higher ed. There’s also a nationalist need to stake a claim to its own history and prehistory, much as the US did with the dinosaurs, and the colonial powers did in Egypt, Mesopotamia, India, and elsewhere.

Thanks PIF.

Reconstruction of the anatomy of an entire (often but not always) extinct form from fractions of the original was pioneered and popularized by Georges Cuvier — but I know what you mean, he was a YEC.

Judging from that skull I say a thriving alien civilization once flourished on the moon but came to western China when the air ran out through global warming....

heh

Well, for some people, it’s just too risky to have attractive cousins.
