Nice creationist disclaimer. Excellent talk
Great material, thanks much for posting these lectures and talks. They are most useful for many people.
I like this guy, Tim White. He's in your face and fuck the establishment bullshit and people's feelings. This is science here. No dicking around. No sugar coating.
Thank you. Great insight
wow like so easy and quick y educational environment time because my life is short life
I hear you.
When Lee Berger talks about people basically hiding specimens for years is he taking jabs at that first speaker Tim. (I forget his last name) He mentioned people were asking them to publish for years, so I got the impression they maybe weren’t letting people see their discoveries?
That's 26,000 years - and "23" degrees of current axial tilt.
Just to put the trees in perspective, these fossilized trees are the same size as the giant redwoods in the American west.

Creationism is just crazy!!!! And I'm a religious Jew!!!! People seem to forget the word of G*d says , a day is a thousand years and a thousand years is a day. It also says our time is not his time and his time is not the same as our time. (That second quote I think I paraphrased ) it's an amazing journey finding out about archaic hominids and early humans, but singing the Earth is 5000 years old is rather ridiculous.
But what about bigfoot?
Can't wait until the amphibian relative of humans is revealed. Amphibians came before mammals. But of course the remains would be decomposed especially if the skeletons were softer and less dense.

Oh, if I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morororning, I'd hammer in the evening, alll day long! I'd hammer on the west side, I'd hammer in east room! I'd hammer on the green house, I'd hammer on the sidewalk! At least until the police came, threw me in the squad car! Stop me if you've heard this, Judge was a meanie! Hammers are trouble kids, and that's the end of that tune.
