I know all that > yikes

I meant that they weren't present-day monkeys, but they were still monkeys in a sense.

That... is one of the strangest ways I've heard someone put it that is still true.

Re: Trivia/Did you know?

Since we use monkey as pretty general term, though, it makes more sense to say monkey.

Technically, yes. We're currently Homo Sapiens, but there is also Homo Neanderthalis, Homo Erectus, and other forms of human before modern humans.

Re: Trivia/Did you know?

The African fish, known as the elephant snout, sets out an electrical signal to communicate with other fish. It’s been said that it resembles Morse Code.

Decca Recording Co. rejected the Beatles with this quote in 1962, “We don’t like their sound and guitar music is on the way out.”

True Mostly. We are Homo sapiens sapiens for some reason. I think we evolved from Homo Sapiens.

That's only because nobody buys records anymore. I bet a bunch of people would've sold that many if they were in style still.

Just because a billion people are willing to watch an ultra popular music video for a single song by him doesn't mean a billion people are willing to buy his album

The small intestine is longer than the large intestine. The small intestine is 7 meters long. The large intestine is 1.5. The large intestine has a wider diameter.
