Poll question: Which would you rather bring back: Dinosaurs or Neanderthals?
I'm siding with the Dinos because I'm afraid the Neanderthals would become slave labor.

1. Dinosaurs. We could raise them in sanctuaries,
and make Dinosaur egg omelets! 2 omelets per egg.

3. Dinosaurs
Edited on Mon Jun-30-08 02:47 AM by dubeskin
Then we can go over to the Middle East and kill those liburty-hatin' oil-hoggin' God-fearin' falafel-eatin' Arabs!

Also, how cool would it be to have a baby raptor as a pet?

5. We'd only abuse the Dinos
Let's get ourselves some companions and bring back Neanderthals, perhaps they could teach us a few things too.

22. Maybe we could take the Nenderthals to the off-leash dog parks.
It would be like, take the Neanderthal-To-The-Park Day.

6. Neanderthals
It would sure piss off the anti-evolution fundies who'd like to deny that they ever really existed.

11. My thoughts exactly.
We've already beaten Neanderthals once, so I'm not to worried about a possible 'Neanderthal Apocalypse'.

A Dinosaur Apocalypse however is frighteningly possible.

:scared:

19. Dinosaurs...we already have neanderthals
And by and large, adding more people is a bad idea anyway.

24. Neanderthals.
Edited on Tue Jul-01-08 05:57 AM by jeff30997
Neanderthals are not hour stupid,brutish ancestors at all.

They are,lets say "cousins" of the Homo Sapiens direct ancestors:The Cro-Magnons.

When you say that someone is a Cro-Magnon,in fact you're doing that person a favor

because their brains where slightly bigger than hour own.

"Their cranial capacity was larger than modern humans, indicating that their brains may have been

larger."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neanderthal

Hour cousin:



Personally I think we whipped them all...

26. WE have the Neanderthals here already - they're called Republicans
So perhaps if we bring back the dinosaurs we can eliminate the Neanderthals again
