What would you consider valid evidence that what you have

At least he gave it a shot. Nothing ventured, nothing groined. Vaults

Crystals, coal and graphite contain blood vessel fossils, too.
About four months ago I placed crystal sticks and graphite under my
200X digital microscope. I was amazed to see fossilized blood vessels
in both objects. The evidence will be presented when I have time. In
the meantime, you can check them out for yourselves. Please note the

Lets step back a bit, what do we 'see'?
We have been told by a few people, examples Johansen, White, Lovejoy
and others, that some, very minimal, fossil remains are a clear
indication of a fully erect locomotion or bipedalism at 3.5, and now
4.5, million years ago, and this assertion of hominid bipedalism has

Various looks of Martian BV & berry on meteorite
The weathered surface of Meteorite 1 (Fig. 1) shows various results of
fossilization for blood vessels and Martian berries. This is different
from newly bought meteorites, for few of the latter suffer from
weathering like Meteorite 1, which was immersed in water for one week

Yes, we see uprightness (orthogrady = vertical spine) already 20 Ma in
Morotopithecus (google Filler Moroto). Gibbons & humans are still upright.
The great apes partly lost this feature (in parallel).

But that isn't what we see. We see uprightness before increased
cranial capacity, in Ardi and in Australopithecus.

What question? You mean the negative evidence slop you
imagine is a question? Cite who made that claim.
The JoRA committe gave you all the answer you need...
into the circular file.
Gee thanks, coming from a true netloon that means a lot.
So Neandertals couldn't see their feet either?
What does that have to do with Ardi being restricted is seeing her

Yes, I agree, this is another extract from my paper, and quadrupeds,
like horses, must have similar capabilities.
"For those with well-trained co-ordination, whether walking or running
and dependent on the degree of difficulty, the focus would be on foot
placement perhaps four to five paces ahead. The brain via the visual
