Damnit Doug thanks to conservatives like you all the quotes from
scientists that say that cro-magnons are taller than us are
disappearing from the web.

I don't think it's a conspiracy, but I do think that at least one
population "cro-magnons" were taller than us on average and definitely
taller than Natufians and such.
But it is a bed of coals to suggest that they were even an inch taller
than us thanks to you and your ilk. Any scientist who does that will
have people emailing her saying she's supporting fringers, and it
seems that scientist loath fringers enough to even disquise evidence
that they know to be true.

Cro-magnons before 26,000 were taller than us on average, and you've
just destroyed the last quote that was brave enough to say so.

A quote with no study behind it, don't you recognize that?

And I don't disagree that they were taller than us on average and
definitely taller than Natufians. We are not arguing about taller, we are
arguing about how much taller.
