Neanderthal....

It appears that scientists have begun mapping DNA from Neanderthal fossils...Mapping the DNA will enable them to discover more about the species, if Homo Sapiens and Neanderthals shared a common ancestor, and if Neanderthals bred with homo sapiens. The news article I read stated:

"While the DNA shows no evidence of widespread interbreeding between humans and Neanderthals, scientists say the study is far from over."

Maybe it will prove true that when people call someone a Neanderthal when they are crude, rude, or criminal, they really are part Neanderthal. How would it be to find out you were part Neanderthal?
