Scientists are understandably excited about finding the fossil remains of 15 human-like individuals in South Africa. The pre-human species, to be called naledi, could have lived as long as three million years ago.
But apparently things, at least political things, may not have changed all that much in all that time. My sources tell me scientists have now deciphered some of the writings on naledi cave walls. The largest fragment has been translated: “Oog is a loser — I gotta tell ya. I, on the other hand, am terrific.”
Apparently narcissistic blowhards are survivors of the first order. Scientists have been looking for the missing link for a very long time. But who knew until now who it linked to?
