Lesson Learned - Dubious Sources

[5thElement]

Let me start with a :wall:

I linked the following article in the Indigo Children thread and thought I would start a new thread to discuss it - however upon looking at the link I discovered a new disclaimer:
The following text is an excerpt from the book Big Brain by Gary Lynch and Richard Granger, and it represents their own theory about the Boskops. The theory is a controversial one; see, for instance, paleoanthropologist John Hawks' much different take.

Original article:

So in trying to be a discerning researcher :wink2: I researched all three sources. Here is what I found...
http://us.macmillan.com/author/garylynch :shocked:
http://us.macmillan.com/author/richardgranger
http://johnhawks.net/weblog/hawks/hawks.html

I couldn't dig anything up on Hawks - seems like he may be the one here without an agenda.

Bit of a bummer for me as I was intrigued by the idea of "proof" on a more "intelligent" ancestor:mad3:

Follow the money... lesson learned:thumb_yello:
