I love evolution.
A Guardian article about how "whales may be descended from a small deer-like creature".
For some reason, I really like this idea! (Although I hate the headline: "How Bambi evolved into Moby Dick".)
And at the bottom, there was a link to the latest article (ok, 3 months ago, but I missed it!) about what looks like it will be called H. floresiensis.
Which is, as one of the researchers is quoted as saying, "a little shot to our over-inflated modern human egos." Nice.
And spot on!
What's also interesting to note is that researcher's comment that one group will be completely proved wrong and one will be completely proved right. As he notes, that's unusual in science.
Like I said, I love evolution! ;)
