Isn't that about the number of folks who favor the Tea Party?
Coincidence?

Wrong.
It CAN and it HAS.

Exploratorium : Evidence : Extracting DNA from Neanderthal Bones

This is how we know there was interbreeding between modern humans and Neanderthals - we've identified their DNA.

This is where our endless parade of lies, manipulations and deceptions has led us: to a future of more lies, manipulations and deceptions because untruth is a black hole; once our first manipulation pushes us past the event horizon, there is no way back to honesty, accountability and factual reporting.

Corporate controlled, manufactured "news" in US is thriving in a dumbed down culture today. Very sad.

My parents aren't working and are the only people in their household. They are retired and living off of investments and business income. It's possible that there are others like them.

I get the point........but there are much bigger fish to fry in this day and age. How many armchair astronomists really understand the inner workings of the Federal Reserve or the Plunge Protection Team. The dangers of high frequency trading, naked short selling?
Uh, astronomy is a real science.

Economics is whatever the guy with the most money in his pocket says it is.

Yes, and they think we are wrong in thinking we were made by God. I find them amusing.

If that is so I am further along in the evolutionary process because my blood type is A negative. My doctor explained to me that means I have no monkey in my blood.
