I’m sure they’ll discover the human footprint was left by a member of the Piltdown Man clan.

Wasn't he an original member of the Stones?

No, they carbon-dated Keith Richards recently and he's older.

the Piltdown Man clan…. Wasn't he an original member of the Stones?

Sorry Soliton. You have got it all wrong.

The (Rolling) Stones are to musical evolution as is the first land walking and air breathing reptile is to evolutionary biology: really old but still relevant and really cool and still rocking. Whereas the Piltdown Man clan is more akin, evolutionary and biologically speaking, to the Wu Tang Clan; a fake, a poser; here today and gone and forgotten tomorrow, and even if our ancestors, a million years from now, can see any evidence in the fossil record for them, it would be at best an evolutionary anomaly and evolutionary dead end.

But our ancestors, a million years from now might sill be listening to The Stones and who knows, Keith Richards might still be alive.
