#aquaticape vs #spaceape : evolutionary theory death match?

oh HAI. Did you get here from the internet? Did you perhaps see the phrase 'aquatic ape' in one of the many fine news sources that cover advances in science and other randomly cool stuff--maybe this piece in the guardian? Did you, by some strange conjunction of arcane google-fu and a lifelong interest in mermaids, learn about the aquatic ape theory through this fascinating piece in the daily mail? Really, it is fascinating; you get to look at this picture if you read it: No? I guess that means that I get to be the one to tell you about the Aquatic Ape Theory. For which I apologise in advance, but not very sincerely. Not long ago, let's say, in 1960, a very interesting man called Sir Alister Hardy addressed the conference of the British SubAqua Club at Brighton on the theme ' Aquatic Man: Past, Present and Future .'  Hardy was a marine biologist with a strong interest in the evolution of man, and seems to have been frequently preoccupied by religion;...

It's been some time, eh? Not that you would have noticed my absence -- my science rants have found a new home on the Cosmic Shambles Network , where not only can you see me sarking about the future of our species , but there are a ton of other great writers too. I've been doing talks and events too - Cheltenham Science Festival with Adam Rutherford, Pontus Skoglund, and Alice Roberts; Nine Lessons with Robin Ince and his gang of insane scientists, and more to come in 2019! But EVEN MORE EXCITING -- I've got an agent!  The amazing Ella Diamond Kahn is now saddled with the task of taking my writing out into the world, and coming back with money, ...
