Really, it's a primate, with a similar skull to humans and an opposable thumb: something no fossil has had before in the class. Still, I want hard proof not mights, could be, etc. I hate to speculate. I do find it really cool find for science but as of right now I just see it as a huge publicity item. What they have been saying before was mights, maybes, and possiblies. This bridges the gap in human evolution. We've seen evolution in countless other species, but have not been able to complete the gap in humans. This is not a might, this is 26 years of studying one fossil before they claimed it was "The Missing Link". This puts away all of the mights, maybes, and possiblies. Kenshin: I would have simply agreed to disagree before today but now that evolution has factual, scientific evidence in favor for it without a gap, I cannot do that. I have never once posted (that I can remember) on the "Does God Exist?" thread. I don't argue religion with people anymore unless it seriously encroaches on someone's rights. I.E.: laws concerning homosexual marriage, abortion, etc.
