humans are not descended from Neanderthals but co-existed with them
about 40,000 years ago, scientists said Tuesday. An analysis of DNA

in a cave in southern Russia showed it was too distinct to be related
to humans. http://abcnews.go.com/wire/World/reuters20000328_2395.html

# Earth's Global Warming, Climate Change Are Historically 'Normal' - Changes
in Earth's climate can be tracked in cycles of ocean conditions over thou-
sands of years. These cycles reveal that Earth is currently experiencing a
natural rise in global temperatures and this, combined with warming from
the greenhouse effect, will push the planet through an era of rapid global
warming. Not our fault: http://cnn.com/2000/NATURE/03/27/ocean.tides.enn/

on Long Island might somehow generate a black hole that would swallow the
planet, or perhaps turn all of creation into some kind of deadly "strange
matter." But probably not: http://foxnews.com/science/032700/rhic.sml
