. . . that Neanderthals could kick our asses.

Looks like we might find out sooner than we thought, and I’m guessing once we re-build a handful of them, they won’t be metrosexual pussies. :) Looks like they’ll be able to talk, though.

But they apparently won’t think our endless yammering is all that sexy. Or at least, their ancestors didn’t think so:

“An early inference that can be drawn from the new findings, which were announced Thursday in Leipzig,Germany, is that there is no significant trace of Neanderthal genes in modern humans. This confounds the speculation that modern humans could have interbred with Neanderthals, thus benefiting from the genes that adapted the Neanderthals to the cold climate that prevailed in Europe in last ice age, which ended 10,000 years ago. Researchers have not ascertained if human genes entered the Neanderthal population.”

I bet there are human genes in the Neanderthal population. Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned in this sad, tragic ride we call life, some humans will fuck anything.
