I knew it!

Karen Kaplan reported Friday in the L.A. Times that scientists now know with certainty that Neanderthal DNA is 99.7 percent identical to that of people. It is just 0.3 percent that makes us unique. The small changes unique to humans are thought to be in the areas of "energy metabolism, skeletal structure, and brain development." I'm sure glad they found that brain development thingy. And, here's to multiculturism and making love instead of war! And we now understand our neighbors much better than before reading this article!
