It is still somewhere on my bookshelf. I'm a bit of a forensic/paleo anthropology fan, and this was the book that got me started.

in the Lucy find back when I was in college, Anthropology major that I was.

Cool that he is there. I was wondering, when I heard that the prez was going to Ethiopia, if he would check out one of the country's major treasures.

Thanks for posting, have to watch the video later after chores are done...
