I tried but don’t seem to be finding the article that I know I posted on. I think it was posted at least a few months ago (and obviously predates the current article), and could have been written shortly before that time (or obviously earlier than that). People were discussing how the conclusions reached seemed at odds with what common sense would dictate concerning the scarcity vs. abundance of reindeer and how that affected the neanderthal’s diet (the scientific conclusions were that the more there was of the deer, the more they found more of the deer (bone?) was used and meat eaten). Many of us thought this didn’t make any sense. It would seem to me that the greater the scarcity of deer, the more likely you would eat everything on a deer and not be “picky” about what was eaten. I think the word “picky” was actually in the article. I’m wondering if the person in this article is the same person as cited in the earlier article. Oh well...maybe someone will remember....
