In the words of the old song

"Birds do it, Bees do it,
So why shouldn't Neanderthals and we do it??"

All this discussion seems to me to point to a conclusion that the N men (and women) were less able to survive the Sumatra Big Bang than our ancestors.

Why is it that I get this recurring feeling that many if not most of these Scientific Researchers are seeking "Big Name Fame and Glory" more ardently than Information???
As Rex Harrison would sing " Why can't they be more like us?" Meaning of course Earth 101 Posters. I suspect that some N men have survived on some of the other threads.

Lilian did you see that Investigative Reports on the 1918 Flu Virus last week??

Cheers
