Glad you liked it. I should have *scent* the message addressed to you as well, hence my "Whoops" ping.

Krapina was actually named after a woman, but there are none with that name today, leading the men of the town to say, "I don't recognize the name, but the feces familiar."

[most transparent setup in history nominee]

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]
