Acording to Boston.Com news , Boston scientists released a provocative report yesterday that challenged the timeline of human evolution and suggests that human ancestors bred with chimpanzee ancestors long AFTER they had initially separated into two species.
The researchers, working at the Cambridge-based Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT, used a wealth of newly available genetic data to estimate the time when the first human ancestors split from the chimpanzees.
The lead scientist said this is in jarring conflict with the fossil record, and explains how the Kennedys managed to turn out so many truly madcap family members.
'”Something very unusual happened,” said David Reich, one of the report's authors and a geneticist at the Broad and Harvard Medical School.
What a day! First, the Feds think they found Jimmy Hoffa's body, and now we know why Teddy, et al, are the way they are!
