Right then. Put it on and think really hard about sailing to New Guinea on a raft.

Being a Physical Anthropologist I can say that tracing humanity's origin is of the utmost importance. How did we evolve, under what circumstances and will we go the way of the Neandertals? How rare are we as species in a galactic sense ? Where else might a species with similar attributes evolve?

What's in a name? Evolution and genetics are clearly biology subjects.

As for the rest...
"[..]under what circumstances and will we go the way of the Neandertals? How rare are we as species in a galactic sense ? Where else might a species with similar attributes evolve?

That's flat out funny. "The way of the Neandertals"? "In a galactic sense"? 😵

So you find it funny, but you cannot explain exactly what you find funny?

When I am drunk I often find things funny that, when I am sober again, cannot explain why I found it funny. Are you sober now or are you drunk?

A friend of mine is always sitting in a corner on every party laughing without knowing why. He is drunk most of his life.

Okay, we deal with it. We know him. He's happy.
