Increasingly there is only one viable solution. Vote with your wallet. Period. Do not buy anything these companies offer. No cable, no movies, no music. Nothing.

Do not feed their useless parisitism on our culture and public domain.

If you must be entertained, find alternative sources, from indie stuff all the way to pirating.

We must do this until their backs are broken.

They will fight.
There will be casualties.
We must not stop or compromise.

What if he is descending from one wandering group that ran into and and interbred once in their history. There would be no genetic fragmentation with this individual, however yet another find could be from a different group that interbred at a different time or times. This would result in many different, geographically isolated, groups of humans with different genetic histories of interbreeding with neanderthals.

Does not conclusively prove. Mixing could have occurred at many times and locations. While useful, more data needed.

I like some of the prospects, and I cut my cord in favor of netfix (and ..other.. sources) long ago, but i do not want to pay HBO, ESPN, Showtime, netflix, Hulu and a dozen different providers either.

I was here then and remembered the post. I have had 3 different UIDs. A 5 digit, where I was a young asinine troll - don't even remember the name, a 6 digit where I was better, slashdot.org/~Undocumented , and my current incarnation.

This site is only interested in deadlocked AGW arguments, political infighting, and tinfoil hattery. Please do not misunderstand, I am not complaining about that. These things have their place. However, real technical discussion is unappreciated here.
