Andy put up an encapsulated but accurate history of mankind and prediction of things to come. At a time the Neanderthal man owned ice age Europe but then along came Cro-Magnon man and smack, no more Neanderthal man. My theory is that Neanderthal man was too big, strong, mussel bound and thought-limited to fend off the more agile, quick and better thinking Cro-Magnon.
I?ve been racking my brain to remember a poem an Australian business associate sent me some time ago, but the last line was ?If it wasn?t for guns, we?d all be British?. Things just seem to go around and around and it is a crapshoot as to who is ?King of the Mountain? at any given time. But then, an exchange of Nukes would end the cycle for good.
