Thanks for all those responses, folks. I could write a great deal about them, but let me make one brief comment. Darwin, in his Origin of the Species in 1859 and many other scientists now argue that man was there--in potential--right at the start of the first DNA which now is found in Greenland and in the Pilbara in Australia at approximately 3.8 billion ya.
