Interesting, Cypress, but what the hell are we supposed to do about it now?

The only thing we can do as a society is to recognize this research as legitimate scholarship worth funding and supporting.

Otherwise kids in the next generations won't have a chance to have careers as paleoanthropologists and push the boundaries of truth and human knowledge.

It would be unfortunate to live in a world where the pursuit of truth doesn't matter, everything just comes down to designing and selling a new widget

Good points, Cypress.
Not applicable specifically to me, perhaps, but good points nonetheless.

My brain has only so many "searches" left in it.
At this age, I have to use them judiciously.

I make a conscious effort to try to commit to memory what I think is important or consequential, and disregard the trivial or irrelevant.
