I was sitting thinking about whether progress had been made, and for some
reason my thoughts went to Darwin, dinosaurs and what happens when your
off-spring looks different from you.

Darwin had theories on evolution.
Dinosaurs didn't - and look what happened to them
and just imagine what Mr and Mr Neanderthal and their social circle would
have said if their son/daugther one day in the supermarket managed to reach
the top shelf without trouble? - they would have been horrified of such a
strange creature.:>)

You can read into this what you want, but yes I think progress was made -
enough so we won't become extinct this ice-age, but not enough to reach the
top shelf of the supermarket yet.

Who still wants people out there to acknowledge the HQ members, by letting
them have a say.
and whose brain has been on standstill since Sunday and whose backside is
now just about alive again. :>)
