Old news, actually. The anthropologist that discovered them gave a lecture about it last year at my university.

A lot of that was a bunch of uneducated blithering. One guy thought it is more likely that we evolved from rats than "monkeys"? How thick can a person be?

I laugh at the poo-tossing monkeys.

If you were stuck in a cage all day you would throw poo, too. I know I would. I'd throw poo like poo's never been thrown before.
