I thought conventional wisdom was that Cro-Mags interbred with HomoSapiens?

[MEGoody]

The answer is possibly 'yes' to the interbreeding but 'no' to the hybrid, according to the authors of a new study that is already making waves among anthropologists.

As I understand it, Neanderthals were different enough from modern man genetically (and it wouldn't take much) that reproduction between the two would not be possible.

A Myth? Not hardly, just look at a picture of Al Frankin.

The much sought-after Human-Neanderthal hybrid:

I believe that Neanderthals didn’t drink light beer.

You people had better rethink this. The Neanderthals and their hybrids are alive and well. They run the Mainstream Newsmedia. They dominate American universities. And millions of them keep the sociopaths and other assorted self-serving nutcase Democrat politicians in power.

Cro Mags and Neanderthal hybrids are shown to be a myth, therefore, all of evolution is a myth.

The old logical fallacy of "exception is the rule" shows its ugly head again.

Neandertal wouldn't be such a bone in the throat for the Britons if the first specimen had been discovered in Britain, or at least by a Briton.

The Neandertal Enigma
by James Shreeve

Frayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]
