I agree,wholeheartedly !

I've seen people -Arnold Schwartzneger is one - with the anthopoid physical characteristics one might associate with the Neanderthal variety of humans.

From the RedHeads thread: the ancestors of modern man, arrived from Africa about 40,000 years ago.

That settles it! We ALL get reparations!

The Neandrthals aren't extinct. ther are acutally quite a few of them left. They mingle among humans and generally live in the larger human cities. I've seen them' most people probably have and just didn't realize it. They usually live in the slums of the large cities, stay out of sight most of the time during the day, are found lurking in the back alleys and decayed areas of the largest cities. Next time you're out for a walk in these one of areas, especially after dark (best time is on the warmer, foggy nights), look closely: They're there, you'll see them.

Would that be "global chillin"?

[Citizen Tom Paine]

I don't believe this. My reason: On the average the Neanderthal had a LARGER brain that H. Sapien did (and does). In short, they had enough smarts.

"Didn't they find neanderthal remains in the Middle East?"

Yes, some of the oldest.

There you are. Hey, caldera-dude, come check this out Is California Heating up?

[txhurl]

Or maybe I'm thinking of dead.

I don't know why, but that picture scares me every time someone posts it. If I have nightmares tonight, it's your fault.

Did Humans And Neanderthals Battle For Control Of The Middle East?

This article ignores the Neanderthals living side by side with Moderns in Isreal for thousands of years. If they made it there, it seems they escaped the cold.

That's a nice picture of Chelsea Clinton.

"That's a nice picture of Chelsea Clinton."

That's a reconstructed face of a 'Hybrid' Human-Neanderthal child found in Spain.

Then who was that guy screaming at the Iowa caucus?

LOL....when I saw the title, I thought it had something to do with Dean, and Iowa!

I believe that Neanderthals were assimilated with modern humans. We are Neanderthals.

Geneticists describe the neanderthal as a separate species from us and as an evolutionary dead end. DNA test showed them to be enough different from us that crossbreeding would not have even been possible. I would guess that our ancestors got tired of looking at them and killed them all.
