"I always thought syphilis was an old world disease that come about as a result of Europeans and Middle Easterners poking fun at sheep."

Some people do think it's an Old World disease, but many others say no. It's also interesting to note that prior to about 1525 there are no recorded accounts of any illnesses with symptoms resembling syphilis, but they become rather common after that time.

>If it's habitable and not occupied by any higher forms of life, we (us on APS that is) should move in to colonize it ASAP. There we can set up a new place, and do it right this time<

I vote we name it "the Freehold of Grainne". Any takers?

As long as none of us starts going by "Mistah Kurtz", I don't see any problem taking the APS yacht upriver.

I see what appears to be a palisade in the lower right corner. That would imply the presence of another tribe hostile to this one. Stone age living in 2008. Amazing...

Nope looks more like a tree now,,,whoops...

Those people were likely living just like that as Babylon rose and returned to the desert sands, as the Pyramids were built, as Greece and Rome rose and fell. Just as they are now.

Perspective.

Hm. Wonder if I can sell them some glass beads?

Put 'em on Craigslist or E-bay, all those uncontacted tribes have interwebz access.
