The spirit of wilderness, born into those who seek the quiet placs in the temples of creation, unencumbered by the shackles and comforts of society, is the only reality.  Man becomes real, fulfilling his destiny, nourishing his soul, and touching the Creator with every step. Tom Brown Jr.

wow! what an interesting article! Thanks for sharing!!

I remember reading a few books back in highschool about how modern humans and neanderthals were actually around during the same time period and how they interbred. Its so crazy to think that some of us may be decendants from these unions.

About 75% of northern europeon decendants have neanderthal genes, in the genetic make up. Lates research.

If you suspect that statement to be true, then you'll probably want to know why it could be true. Well, this is what I have devoted my life to finding out, and I want to share with you everything i've learnt, as well as learn from you!
