Canada has entrusted its security against terrorism to a guy who believes that the earth is 6,000 years old, Adam and Eve actually existed and man walked with the dinosaurs.
If he's right, just where are the people fossils? We have an abundance of fossilized remains - fish fossils, plant fossils, dinosaur fossils, bird fossils, insect fossils, we've even got fossilized dinosaur poop - just no people fossils.
So, if we're from the same age as the dinosaurs, why don't we have the fossilized remains of great, great grandfather (to the 20th power) Billie? Wouldn't it be great to have our ancestors up on the mantle?
Man has been interested in fossils for a long, long time. Fossils have been found in Neanderthal burial sites. It wasn't until Leonardo, however, that man figured out these were the vestiges of life long past. But that's still several hundred years in which to find one, even one partial, human fossil.
Sorry Stockwell, but you're just plain goofy.

Ask Iggy - he said in a speech a few weeks ago that the aboriginals have been a "nation" in Canada for the past 50,000 years.
He must have his sources because, well, you know, he has a big brain and is so much smarter than anybody else anywhere anytime and about everything.
Jason, I have to confess. They were at a neighbour's barbeque last week, along with Barney, Betty and Wilma. You shoulda' seen those ribs!
shannon:
Are you sure he didn't say 'fifteen' rather than 'fifty'? Even if he did say 'fifty', what is more likely: slip of the tongue, or an eminent professor doesn't know when humans crossed Beringia?
If this is your example that Iggy is an idiot, I'm afraid it's a little unconvincing.
