Apparently, DNA posted on sci.anthropology a couple of times, then.
Just thought people may find this interesting - I found it over on
rec.games.int-fiction.

This is fantastic! I've been very interested in AAT myself for some time.
It was proposed by a Welch woman with no formal anthropological background
other than having worked as a reporter for the BBC on some related issues.
It would certainly explain why we walk upright and have hair only on our
heads.
Thanks, John.

DNA liked anthropology. The last thing he wrote that got published in
a book was the preface for Digging Holes in Popular Culture, a book
about Archeology and Science Fiction edited by Miles Russel. I've
been browsing in that, and it's interesting enough to read on the
train.

Thanks for the post - it seems authentic DNA and is fascinating stuff. Guess
we may never know but I'm convinced personally.
Nice one!

the aquatic ape theory is quite compelling. Elaine Morgan is still alive I
think though in her mid eighties now. She has written a few books on the
subject which are a fascinating read though there are one or two holes in
the theory. One is the direction of hair growth follows the direction water
would flow. It just isn't so.
It's great appeal is the logic of it all. It makes sense. Whether it is
actually true though is another issue !
