  3. I mean to say that life, all life has a common ancestor, that ancestor was a primitive form of bacteria. Modern bacteria are not privitive and are quite complex. Mammals didn't evolve for almost 3.5 billion years after the first bacteria but yes our very distant ancestors were indeed simple one celled organisms. Not the same land the same water, conditions on earth 4 billion years ago was much different than today. We can tell this from the geology of rocks left from that time. While things like organic molecules can be made today they are immediately consumed by extant life. The Earth didn't even have free oxygen until around 2 billion years ago. News species are evolving all around us, it has been observed both in the wild and in the lab. Bacteria are still evolving into new and different bacteria but more complex organisms have a choke hold on ecological niches they can live supressing bacteria from continuing in that direction.

  4. No, evolution has no goals, no ladder of development. Evolution is ongoing and as long as organisms reproduce with variation it will continue... We didn't evolve from apes we still are apes and all life on earth started out as bacteria 4 billion years ago...
  5. Some word working porn...

    Missed it by ... THIS MUCH!
  8. I've always been interested in prehistoric hominids and the mixing of the different species that resulted in us. Jean M. Auel popularised the era in her series of books. She supposedly did a considerable amount of research in the various pre stone age culture. In one book she describes a person who makes fire with flint in an era when steal would have been almost impossible to obtain. My point would be that fire had several stages as you pointed out but think of the implications if someone was knapping flint and came across a meteorite, such a discovery and it's effects on what was hominid society would be interesting...
  9. You don't think that flint knapping had anything to do with fire?
  10. Neanderthals were limited by low population levels, an apparent lack of trading of both materials and genes. Small groups widely separated and tied to caves makes for little gene mixing. Lack of trading for essential materials to make tools might have been a big factor in why we absorbed them genetically.
  11. Just messing with you, they are one of my fav aquarium fish, you can use a detector to "hear" their communications and geolocation. I've also observed altruistic behavior as well... They are also interested in magnets but hate knifefish which do the same things but with much more fish like brains... I think tool use is a bit more useful in estimating intelligence as we know it..
  12. Damn, now why didn't I think of this!
  13. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/vg9fTwYFMlh8PKm5pSssPCrjTTN3x0OIzj74eXf3ZYp3hJ8Ew-Us8IlN9wu9L0kOlYQwNg=s152 I can't seem to make this show up as a picture for some reason...
  14. Original song by Motion device... A piece of rock and roll!
  15. Crank it up to 11! Turn on your subwoofers, wake the neighbors! Awesome song and video!
  16. Nothing funnier than suspending the laws of physics...
