Since evolution of man has never been "observed", nor has there ever been any intermediate species still alive, ever shown, I'm wondering how science concludes evolution is "fact?" Because of all the intermediate species which are represented in the fossil record. Many of these, for example:

How about a "same old spam" placemarker? I wish we had the capability on FR to show how many times Coyote has posted this same graphic...could it be thousands of times?

Figure 1.4.4. Fossil hominid skulls.I assume there is a factual explaination for how scientist know without a doubt all those are Hominid skulls.
What is it?
