Sorry for the diversion off of Dino's.  The new info is being questioned,
as well as being checked against other previously published data
regarding archaic H. sapiens.  Seems that what at first looked like it
might be great proof in fact is a good impetus for more research.

So, like I said, the jury is still out.  Maybe they are, maybe they
aren't. Don'tcha just hate it! :)
