New studies show that we and chimps had a common ancestor between 5 to 7 million years ago. This estimate is thanks to Blair Hedges, an astrobiologist at Penn State. The only challenge to this would be my own experience. I am sure that several of my college fraternity brothers diverged from chimps much more recently. What to you think?
My Christmas shopping is almost done and we are soon to fly south to Florida. If my cell phone modem works I hope to continue this blog through the Holidays.
Merry Christmas to all
