Hi!
Many of you are probably as fascinated as I am by human origins, so I'd like to post this animation which reconstructs the spread of people out of Africa, according to current theory. It seems to match the paths traced by Stephen Oppenheimer in his recent book.
Warning: if you think it all started 6,000 years ago underneath an apple tree you might not want to look at this.

Very fascinating although very un-pentaxian :).
There is one thing that strikes me as particularly amazing. I've also seen something like this on TV in one of the popular science shows...
So there was this volcano eruption that left order of 10,000 people on Earth. From these 10,000 the rest evolved... When I stop and think of it, it just amazes me. Don't you agree?
