This article is cool. Dates just keep getting pushed further and further back in time.

"World's oldest wall painting" . . .

So did Altamira and Lascaux suddenly get younger . . . ?

I think they are making a distintion between a building wall and a cave wall.

Alright already, R/S: The World's Oldest Wall Painting on a human-made wall ... how's that?

You remind me of my attorney. Picking away at definitions.

Not that I like lawyers, but they do have their reasons for existance.
The differance between a cave wall and a building wall has saved me a few bucks in court.
Judges seem to like guys that can pick the heck out of something we all think is obvious.
