Following that scenerio, I know exactly where and who the "missing link" is....I swear, the person I know has to be that missing link' he is just one of a kind, just to see him walk and work and the way he carries himself and his way of thinking he just has to be it..........and no he is not handicapped in anyway.

Derek you give up too easily. ;o) The website posted just said "probably never" and the word "theory" was tossed around, no proof there. Personally all I have to say is the proof is in "Monday Night Football", imnsho. Then there is always "The Clan of the Cave Bear" theory/book. :o) ~ jan ~Power to the Porg, Flow On!~ |

oh.. they are same species. I was talking about "looks" and ability to survive in
the wild. lots of feral dogs make it in the wild. and wolf-dog hybrids are common.

And just because people have slept in the same place, doesn't mean that those persons had sex together. The fact is that the DNA doesn't indicate that there is a close genetic link between the two species. |

The fact is that the DNA doesn't indicate that there is a close genetic link between the two species. It's called the "smoking louse", and it is actually H. Sapiens and H. Erectus that are involved. I didn't get all the details, but the point was that head lice are _extremely_ specialized parasites. You can catch head lice from another person a lot more easily than sleeping in the same bed, but I believe they said that you can't catch head lice from a chimpanzee. Their theory wasn't that the two species had had sex, just that they had to have lived in close enough proximity to pass each other the lice, and that they had to be genetically close enough to share the parasite. -- derek |
