Very cool article about human prehistory

[smokey the elder]

There is evidence that humans almost went extinct(!) 70,000 years ago.

Looks very interesting! I've bookmarked it to read later as I have to leave in 10 minutes.

Hey, I just finished reading that. :D I thought it was very interesting too.
While I was reading, it struck me that all racial & territorial disputes today
are just rediculous, seeing as we all came for the same group in Africa so
long ago.

I actually watched a special program on "Mitochondrial Eve" in my anthropology class a few years back, it was very interesting.
