Out of Africa? Political Correctness and Science

Regular readers may know that I’m wont to joke that we are all African-Americans, and so should be eligible for minority set-asides, scholarships and/or reparations (should they ever be awarded). My joke is based upon the prevailing hypothesis about the origin of modern Homo sapiens sapiens.  Personally, I’ve never accepted the Out of Africa model (aka single replacement), but it’s been the favored scientific “wisdom” for some time. The proposals of Milford H. Wolpoff, who advances the multiregional hypothesis, have always seemed to make more sense, but even that model envisions Africa as our ultimate homeland.

“The Rogue Gallery of Possibilities”

Oprah and Obama Look Like Brother and Sister. They both had dysfunctional childhoods. He gave himself a strong B+, and she hasn’t graded him on his performance yet.

Obama and Warren Buffett share distant cousins and both believe in social justice. They also both like General Electric. The media reported in October 2008 Buffett agreed to buy General Electric stock that included the option to purchase $3 Billion over the next 5 yrs at a 10% dividend. NBC, GE, Buffett, Immelt, and Obama. One happy family.
