Didn't the aliens, in prehistoric times, around the time of the dawn of man, send
down a large, shrieking black monolith to earth in order to teach our primitive
ancestors, the apes, the power of thought and reason and to use the bones of animals
as primitive weapons to kill animals for meat??
Also, didn't one of those same apes toss one of these bones high into the air only for
it to turn into a spaceship............???
........Or am I thinking of something else??
Regards,
Steve.
