Don’t forget that before the Black Sea flood, two thirds of the current sea’s surface area was a fresh water lake. Maybe we were amphibious.

I never heard of that most of the ocean was ever fresh water. If that’s true, that’s very important to me.

But your saying we were amphibious is VERY important.

There seems little doubt that we were water beings at one point. Human babies born in water hold their breath and swim to the top. The interesting thing is that THOSE babies don’t cry when they are born. It is a beautiful way to give birth, and a small number of women choose it. But circumcision shows us that vanishingly few people care about any agony they inflict on infants, so, despite the success of this method and the happiness of hte newborn, it will always be a tiny minority.

Dr. Leakey’s wife, after his death, kept talking about the semiamphibious phase of human evolution, but anthropologists almost literally shouted her down. They said it wasn’t worth going into because it couldn’t be tested. They never say that about racial equality theories.

But that semiamphibious phase is dhown by the fact that we not only lost our hair, but the tiny hairs we do have (We have as many hairs as an ape, but they are tiny) are pointed in the directions most convenient for swimming. That probably happened when the hairs were still large and were a real hindrance in the water.

As you know, dolphines developed their big brains in water, and it is very likely we did, too. I forget the long list of traits that prove it, but there is no doubt we were a water being for a long time.

Now THIS is what I mean by BASIC thinking. Peter took what I said about traveling on the coasts and expanded it into an area I knew about but did not connect up. This is the sort of basic deductions that MUST live on after I die.
