Now that really IS bizarre nature! Truly an astounding find! To think they would still be here today if not for a volcanic eruption.

That's not a new species, that was half of my third grade class. Homo Frodosiensis... dang! I could have used him for the Hobbits challenge. Anybody know how to backdate an EXIF file by 18,000 years? |

| I guess we should try to keep this thread short. That is an amazing discovery indeed. I read that they found stone tools, evidence of cooking, and a beautiful ring with strange writing on it. |

just another example of extreme scientific speculation... it's probably nothing more than a human midget or a human child...

I'd say your comment is more speculation than anything presented here. Do you always make immediate, flip judgements? Or is it just here in these forums?
