That might be truer than you think AbsentG apparently most of us have some degree of Neanderthal in our DNA. They do get a bad press though.

Not so sure Neanderthal man's genes have ever totally disappeared!

Trying to recreate the Passenger Pigeon. Extinct for 100 years.
It'll be Neanderthal man next.
