I had always thought NZ got a blast from Antarctica during part of the year? Having coal, first, then indoor heat from methane gas, and electric baseboard heating, we have diverged much from monogamy, me thinks, or my adolescence would have been considered paradisiacal, though not, I fear, from young females, so I am wondering if the temperature thing is spot on?
Because most mammals don't extend their range from Africa to the Arctic. As I said, there's a tendency towards polygamy in hot countries, but it wouldn't work for humans in cold ones because more parental investment is required to rear offspring successfully. -----Original Message----- From: LizR <lizj...@gmail.com> To: everything-list <everything-list@googlegroups.com> Sent: Wed, Apr 16, 2014 5:10 pm Subject: Re: Climate models On 17 April 2014 07:58, Stephen Paul King <stephe...@provensecure.com> wrote: Polygamy is common for most mammals....
