Neanderthals mated with some modern humans after all and left their imprint in the human genome, a team of biologists has reported in the first detailed analysis of the Neanderthal genetic sequence.
The biologists, led by Svante Paabo of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, have been slowly reconstructing the genome of Neanderthals, the stocky hunters that dominated Europe until 30,000 years ago, by extracting the fragments of DNA that still exist in their fossil bones. Just last year, when the biologists first announced that they had decoded the Neanderthal genome, they reported no significant evidence of interbreeding.
So Philly fans bred with humans. Gross but not unheard of
An interesting read and hopefully non partisan.

I always knew there was SOMETHING about Barbara Bush..... :mrgreen:
NOTE: This post was so easy, crass, juvenile, and tasteless, that even a caveman could post it. LOL.
she was quite the babe back in the days of WWII!!
Hildabeast and Michele were never babes
I know who would be the most intense partner.
This doesn't surprise me, considering Neanderthals were fully human

Of course! How else do you explain liberals?

They discovered the ancestors of modern liberals. Just kidding guys, don't get all offended. :lol:Neanderthals mated with some modern humans after all and left their imprint in the human genome, a team of biologists has reported in the first detailed analysis of the Neanderthal genetic sequence.

But but I thought that humans were only like 10000 years old and that Jesus rode dinosaurs....
Actually, there's some argument as to whether they were a subspecies of humanity (Homo sapiens neanderthalensis) or whether they were a separate species altogether (Homo neanderthalensis).
Maybe my joke was closer to the truth than I thought.I wonder if any of them knew Jesus. I will have to check out a textbook at a library here in Texas to find out. :mrgreen:
well, if they interbred, they'd likely be a subspecies

Thought text books were banned in Texas and only a rock with a chisel was a valid form of righting tool...
You mean if they interbred and produced viable, fertile offspring, as the article suggests. Rural people interbreed with their sheep all the time, but sheep aren't a subspecies of rural people... I don't think. There can be no doubt that neanderthals mated with cro mags. It's just a question of how often, whether they had offspring, and whether those offspring's progeny survived and passed on their genes.
