A year from now, another report will come out showing this is just a deformed homosapien, but won’t get any news coverage. That’s usually how these things work.

I believe in evolution. The chimps are one step away from becoming liberals. We can turn them around.

Yes as time goes its significance will diminish as it does with all ‘the missing links’.

Again?

Wait a few years and they will revamp the chain yet again.

I am so old that in my school books neanderthal man was in the depicted chain.

Australopithecus sediba had human-like face

No it did not, it looked like a giant chimp with a saggital crest.

We just had another missing link that was found out not to be a missing link.

This dog and pony show is getting wearisome.
