Takeaways include:

• Modern humans have time travelled back as much as 86,000 years ago.
• Modern humans mated with archaic humans 18,000 years later. Or earlier... you know humans.
• Perhaps archaic humans are actually an example of de-evolution. Man isn't coming from the apes, he's going to them.
• There was a flood event. I'm always suspicious of dating techniques due to the ability of things to leach in and out of materials.
• Asian people may have fled Asia and become Africans prior to the Out of Africa hypothesis.

Modern humans is a foolish term that I hope dies out.

There’s no takeaway about a flood event. If there were an ability to leach away dating evidence, it wouldn’t be possible to RC date ancient shipwrecks.

There’s an agenda at work at both ends of the Asia/Africa debate.
