According to preliminary sequences, 99.7% of the base pairs of the modern human and Neanderthal genomes are identical, compared to humans sharing around 98.8% of base pairs with the chimpanzee.

Hey this is great news. I want to order my E ticket right now for "Neanderthal Park"! Should be a fun holiday! But I question this data. My experience suggests that in certain states human DNA and Neanderthal DNA are a match to at least 99.99% ...

Neanderthal Park (aka "Bible Belt") is located on the North American continent and extends as far west as Holy-wood.

Remember they had bigger brains than modern humans (likely bigger than the "out of Africa"ns they met), made art, and buried their dead. With flowers, no less. This news must really drive White Supremacists crazy. I mean, they like to go on about how Blacks are "subhuman", but this indicates that African Blacks are the only "pure" humans on the planet!

Fergerson To the contrary, that news will please them for sure - for the reasons that you suggested in your first paragraph. Harald
