"Lucy" is coming to Houston.
Maybe they'll send along a couple of hand axes for the display.
Then the Club will finally be unable to say that there are no "Hand-Axes" in North America.

Yuk, yuk, yuk!!
Opening a can of worms: I'd be interested in knowing different opinions as to how Lucy fits into human evolution, if at all.
I personally have a hard time buying into anything that's been hypothesized prior to H. erectus. Behavior and anatomy just seem too different, in my opinion.

Erectus didn't come from nowhere.

Agreed. Whatever begins to exist has a cause.

I don't think Lucy will be there.
Sounds more like a slide show designed to let people know that the country even exists.

Still rendered in Light Blue on your chart, Charlie.
Does that mean close enough for government work?
