nutrition. That one I am sure about.>>

I think this is a little more complicated than you are making it. Once men were powerful and clever enough to hunt successfully, they rapidly got taller and brighter because of increased nutrition. However, prior to that point there are certainly lots of examples in the fossil record of intermediate "missing link" beings who were on an evolutionary path. The four-year-old boy who was found recently would certainly be an example of that. Does anyone have that link? It was in the news, but I cannot find it at the moment.
