Is Venus not visible at 3AM sometimes?

It might be if you are way up north, but here is the data for this week from Houston. Pretty much visible from just before sunrise through just before sunset.

Considering there's no archeological evidence of Soultrean cultures being seafarers, the theory starts to lose some steam.
BUT, even for sake of argument, that "all humans" started in Africa and spread out? Wouldn't that cause some pause, arguably? Why some, developed cultures, or even races? And Africa, by itself and, more particularly, after the, I guess, in the theory, controllers/colonialists left, still can't get their act together (to use an scholastic term?  ;) ) Just saying. If evolution is true why stop at some points?

People just pacing themselves, especially since we're only at the halfway point. Only two and half hours left!

No, but it will help accelerate it. The legacy of slavery and, even worse, the 1965 immigration changes have sealed our fate. Oh well. It was nice while it lasted (and really, historically, it was a nice run for a reasonable peaceful republic.)

Has more to do with where agriculture started, which was probably somewhere in the Fertile Crescent after people left Africa as far as I know.  Spread east and west and back to Africa as far as the Nile valley.

Happened again in Mesoamerica with corn, beans and squash.  Which is why you have all those pyramids.



I played soccer when I was a kid. I was awful at it. There is your random Sandra fact.

Stop with videos Sandra!  I don't even have to watch them to feel my man tits getting bigger.

Well, that killed sports (at least in smaller schools.)  ;) But the country's fate, we even then likely didn't have a nation, was sealed in 1965. Oh well. Nice while it lasted.....

Presumably because Sub-Saharan Africa was abundant with animal and plant life to provide the humans with nutritional needs, where areas like Egypt required the inhabitants to be more inventive when it came to feeding themselves.

Then why did they leave?
