    They are among us.

    For anyone who every doubted that H. sap and Neanderthals interbred, I have only two words: Ron Perlman.

    Unhappy No more Triceratops?

    Darn, I hope they keep calling them Triceratops, for the juvenile stage, and not Torosaur, which does not have the same appeal. The more we know...

    Makes you wonder how many species we've exterminated before we even knew they existed.

    Too damn many! I'm no tree-hugger, but the sheer stupid waste of potentially revolutionary resources, both fauna and flora, in the name of "pretty" veneer for some cheap furniture, or the expansion of farm/grazing lands, or to accomodate the excessive expansion of humanity, drives me out of my tree! So to speak.

    Where is the pandemic they keep bleating about? We need to drastically cull the human herd soon!
