we can now see that Australopithecus was too derived—its locomotion too sophisticated, and its invasion of new habitats too advanced—not to almost entirely obscure earlier hominid evolutionary dynamics

What this means is that Lucy must have had bipedal ancestors and Lucy was not the hominid that signaled the break between the evolutionary line leading to humans on one side and apes on the other.

Ardi's fossils were supposedly trampled by what they suspect was a herd of hippos, and were in such poor condition that they fell apart or turned into dust at the slightest touchThis is why, in the interest of accuracy, Tim White took so long to complete his study. In other creationist diatribes, I have read the critique that White was reporting "old" news since the fossil had been discovered in the 1990's. These rim shots are exactly why I seldom engage creationists in any debate. Your ridicule is your best weapon. I really don't know how else a female would be portrayed other than how ardi has been.

Bye now, I have got to sacrifice a titmouse to my bust of Darwin.

PS The following from the evo-religious, race-baiting, anti-semitic, global warming alarmists over at National Geographic bears repeating:

"Move over, Lucy. And kiss the missing link goodbye."

Absolutely amazing.

Yeah....I can see how that would be soooo...

upsetting to evolutionists.

Calling that “old news”, and pointing out and observing the fossils are old and fraglie, that is just soooo over the top uncalled for and all.

I mean the nerve!

Wow, from the side of the aisle that often attacks and smears people like rabid dogs any and every time evolution is so much as questioned.

From the side that rushes to the courthouse to shut DOWN debate.

I bet you even said that with a straight face, huh?

Usually kind of a drive-by evo are you?
