Neanderthal surrogate wanted

I first saw this title in the online MIT Technology Review and just assumed it was a certain someone looking to produce offspring (see, you should never assume) ... but apparently a scientist unaffiliated with the CH wants to clone a Neanderthal and needs a surrogate (in his words ... a very brave woman).

    Sounds like mixing Homosapiens with Neanderthal could possibly create a type of Troll-YIKES

    What would that be?  Hmmm, a Neandersapien or Homoderthal? 
    I guess it's better than a mixed metaphor.

    Hey, I've invented a new Bub.

    Bub 2.0.

    A nicer, warmer, friendlier Bub.

    One that even Bapu could love again.

    Maybe

    Well, after I pop a few Rad-X, and a Stim-Pak or two, I'll be good as new and striving for that Analog warmth we've all come to know and love.

    BTW ... none of that first part made any sense unless you're a Fallout 3 fan. So far I've logged 250 hours. My how time flies roaming the radioactive post-apocalyptic Capital wasteland.

    I'm a neanderthal man and you are a neanderthal woman and we make neanderthal love!  (Something like that!)

    There's a lot of very good evidence around that suggests we interbred with neanderthals.
     
    It's generally accepted that Homo neanderthalensis were either a sub-species of Homo sapiens or a separate species of the genus Homo that shared a common ancestor in Africa around 500,000 years ago. The Neanderthals went on to thrive in areas of Europe and the Near East, while Humans lived on the African savannah. As we spread north into Europe, it's believed that we were responsible, along with the effects of climate change, for the eventual demise of the Neanderthals. However, it's well understood that during the period of co-existence, there was some interbreeding between the two species/subspecies.
     
    As a result of many studies, including the mapping of both the Human and Neanderthal genomes, it's estimated that our genetic code contains around 1 - 4% Neanderthal DNA.

    Speak for yourself.  I know the unofficial CH credo is … what happens in the CH stays in the CH … but aren’t we sharing a bit too much.

    Maybe a don’t ask, don’t tell policy (wrt relationships w/ Neanderthals)?!?!
