But a more controversial theory suggests that the two hominid species lived side by side for many thousands of years and may have intermingled, which implies there could be Neanderthal genes in the human gene pool today.

I went to high school with a guy who looked like he had a substantial dose of Neanderthal genes.

It seems to me the key to the Neanderthal mystery is the timing of the invention of alcoholic beverages.

If beer, or mead, were invented in time, then even Neanderthal men and women could have gotten Cro-Magnon dates.

I've experienced the phenomenon myself: after 4 or 5 beers, Neanderthal girls start to look pretty good!

That's very dangerous, you know. One more beer can have far more drastic consequences. Google "six beers" if you dare.

I dared.

Now I'm sorry!

I've had quite a few more than six beers at one sitting, and I've seen some Neanderthal girls improve to Cro-Magnon, but I've never seen males of any kind start to look good.
