The oldest real evidence of modern man on the planet even by conventional dating schemes is about 30K years.....

Sorry, wrong.

You keep dropping these one-liners on the science threads but you don't seem to want to back them up. Got any evidence for that statement?

There’s basically no real basis for any of these dates you see on age estimates for most of the hominid remains in the world. RC dating even in theory is only good to around 50K years and the decay methods you read about for much older things don’t apply to hominid remains. Aside from everything else Gunnar Heinsohn has demonstrated that the stratigraphical basis for some of the age estimates involving neanderthal remains in caves are totally fubar and that there is no defensible basis for assigning more than about 100 years to a layering system which is normally assumed to involve about 60,000 years; that would be in “Wie Alt Ist Das Menschengeschlect?” The counts of tools and paraphernalia corresponds to about 100 years and not 60,000.

His evidence seems to come from a German Sociologist.
