I took him out a couple of hours ago,
assuming that was long over.

What a mistake! . . . right back in.

... whose interest in biology was stimulated by the publications of
the father of modern anatomy and neurobiology, Spanish neurologist and
Nobel awardee Santiago Ramón y Cajal.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santiago_Ram%C3%B3n_y_Cajal

In 1897, he published a book in Spanish giving some pretty bold advice
to young scientists: "Advice for a Young Investigator"

From chapters titled "Beginner>s Traps" to "Diseases of the Will",
Ramón y Cajal addresses - in a startlingly relevant and humanistic way
- the questions, problems, self-doubts and fears that scientists must
face, the qualities that a good scientist requires, and the pitfalls
and failings of bad scientists.

"Defect for defect, arrogance is preferable to diffidence, boldness
measures its strengths and conquers or is conquered, and undue modesty
flees from battle, condemned to shameful activity."

The book reads like a Poor Richard>s Almanack of witty aphorisms,
amusing instructions, and moral proclamations.

"It is fair to say that, in general, no problems have been exhausted;
instead, men have been exhausted by the problems. Soil that appears
impoverished to one researcher reveals its fertility to another."

"Most people who lack self-confidence are unaware of the marvelous
power of prolonged concentration. This type of cerebral polarization
(which involves a special ordering of perceptions) refines judgment,
enriches analytical powers, spurs constructive imagination, and - by
focusing all light of reason on the darkness of a problem - allows
unforseen and subtle relationships to be discovered."

"If a solution fails to appear after all of this, and yet we feel
success is just around the corner, try resting for a while. Several
weeks of relaxation and quiet in the countryside brings calmness and
clarity to the mind."

Yes, perhaps all these aquatophiles are just remembering early
prenatal lifestyles and transposing them on their achaeological/
anthropological modelling.
This would certainly explain their "religious" adherance to the
utterings of MV, et. al.
Remember the fishes. we were all aquatic once ( a long long time
ago...).

There>s another spin on it that comes out of early Taoism, which went on
about the need to dip your dick in "the waters of life', a juicy cunt.

They thot it balanced yin/yang, and mite have something in the
transdermal transfer thru the delicate tissues of hormones from the
other sex.

I>m sure the different hominid species was trying out other cunts; they
try fucking goats for crysake, no hominid bitch would be too ugly. And
nobody was around with a Bible telling them it was evil.

Which raises questions about the results of millions of matings.

It is widely believed that H. erectus originally migrated from Africa

This "wide belief" (??) is based on nothing: the earliest Homo fossils come
from Mojokerto & Dmanisi. Both in Asia, c 1.8 Ma, the former in a marine
delta & the other also next to rich aquatic resources. The earliest
erectus-like fossils in Africa are less than 1.6 Ma.

First occurrence of early Homo in the Nachukui Formation (West Turkana,
Kenya) at 2.3-2.4 Myr

Received 3 March 2004; accepted 25 March 2005. Available online 20 June 2005.
Abstract
...
In 2002 a new palaeoanthropological site (LA1greek small letter alpha), 100
meters south of the LA1 archaeological site, produced a first right lower
molar of a juvenile hominid (KNM-WT 42718). The relative small size of the
crown, its marked MD elongation and BL reduction, the relative position of
the cusps, the lack of a C6 and the mild expression of a protostylid,
reinforced by metrical analyses, demonstrate the distinctiveness of this tooth
compared with Australopithecus afarensis, A. anamensis, A. africanus and
Paranthropus boisei, and its similarity to early Homo. The LA1greek small
letter alpha site lies 2.2 m above the Ekalalei Tuff which is slightly younger
than Tuff F dated to 2.34 ± 0.04 Myr. This juvenile specimen represents the
oldest occurrence of the genus Homo in West Turkana.
