Morning y’all
A big shout out to Nitram for today’s DJK
. . . . . Didja Know?
If you thought the ‘People of Wal-mart’ were a scary bunch, wait until you see how one PhD predicts
mankind will look in 100,000 years - essentially as a result of us messing around with our own DNA.

Dr. Alan Kwan, who has a PhD in Computational Genomics from Washington University, predicts we will have
much larger eyes to see in dimmer off Earth colonies, larger craniums to hold super-brains and we'll develop
darker skin to handle greater UV exposer - coupled with thicker eyelids to adapt to low-gravity environments.

Ladies and gentlemen, meet your great (x 1000) grandchildren

LOL.. Greater UV Exposer.. Is that somebody that goes around exposing himself?

Joy, some of those typos just sound funny.. . But I doubt humans will be around 100,000 years from now... so we won't have to worry about UV exposure.. or Exposers.

Actually, I did know this one. I saw it on the news a couple of nights ago. The pictures look like present-day cartoon characters!

I protest! Dr. Kwan has made his imaginary male's brain much bigger than the female. He must be a friend of Alex Trebeck. I don't even want to see the UV exposer.

I'm sure that there will be many more evolutionary changes that have not been touched upon.
