Absolutely fascinating (thank you for the link, Rose).

I am interested in the comment about climate change in the article.

Absolutely cracking up over the ass jawbone comment. If it is an ass jawbone does that mean one is speaking through one's posterior?

No Errol, "Nigelius Faragium" is the term for the jawbone of an ass :-D

Apparently, scientists have discovered a jawbone which they believe to be from the very first of humans.

It was discovered in Ethiopia.

Under standard nomenclature, my understanding is that it is referred to as Nigelius Faragium.

I may be incorrect.
