As a tusk, of course.

Why? Where else would it go?

The mountains have yielded rich pickings in recent years, including ivory figurines, ornaments and other musical instruments. Archaeologists believe humans camped in the area in winter and spring.

In a cave not far away, clay tablets were found with the first file-sharing lawsuits written on them.

Next they'll find evidence of early PETA members who protested the murder of wooly mammoths.

Could this be the reason it is now illegal to make piano keys and other trinkets from ivory? And is it also possible that this inexcusable and thoughtless use of ivory was the cause of the early demise of the wooly mammouth?

Somehow I doubt that early man was capable of wiping out all the mammoths. They must have been hard to kill with sticks and stones.

I'm still recovering from the Zamphir TV ads.

You need to get one or both of the following:

1.) TiVo
2.) A life
