i really did not want to get involved in this conversation however funny i think it is-

but i have a question

i could be wrong... but

how come

1) if all the continents were once together in pangea (which i believe) there have only been human like fossils found in africa?

2) because all of the fossils have been found in africa how did man get to other parts of the world... my theory is with pangea- but then refer back to the first question

 

is it just that ppl havent looked in present day NYC? haha

who knows what type of stuff is buried under our feet

[yauger]

what came first? the chicken or the egg?

hahaha had to say it!!

Pangaea separated about 250 million years ago, whereas hominids only arrived on the scene about 5 million years ago. By that time, the continents looked pretty much like they do now.

 

Humans have migrated out of Africa a few times, via the Middle East. They either had to migrate across Asia and the Bering Strait about 20,000 years ago, or get on a boat in Europe some time later, to get to NYC.

thats what i was thinking of when i started writing it hahaha

 

but i mean my queston stands- i dont doubt im standing over human bones- though i cringe to think about it- im just wondering why we havent looked in the mid west or alaska region im sure there are real cool native american fossils- or pre native american fossils- what about the ppl who lived here WAY before us- im sure we can find simmilar fossils/bones of ppl in the midwest and russia/asia area cuz of the bearing straight- i think this thred got really really off topic now

 

 

 

EDIT just saw your post--- i slightly forgot about the timeing issue- but yes about bering strait

 

oh and i didnt realize i said NYC which had nothing to do with ellis island- but it was just a big city no one has dug up.... well becasue its a big city-

i just imagine what ppl could find here if they tried- but i guess its easier if there is no one living in an area you wanna dig up

The other part you failed to mention Dave is that after they got to NYC they were forced back on a boat and sent to Puerto Rico where they have been living until now in secrecy!

I am never sure how to respond to this. Options include:

 

"Me too!"

 

"I like mine with oxygen, thank you."

 

"A moose bit my sister once."

 

My bad, I thought the title was "Your Daily PB&J". I was doing some research and found that God really likes PB&J too: apple jelly and Jiffy on Wonderbread to be exact. Who else? The list is quite large actually, it includes great people throughout history. There is a book written on it called "Great Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches Throughout History" by Cheech Marin. I highly recommend it.

Oh c'mon, NYC is FULL of Neanderthals!

Actually, you might want to call Geico and ask them.

Seriously? I want to check that out.

 

I wonder if throwing a PBJ in the tank could be the cause of a cyano bloom.
