"The cute, feel-good images of babies swimming freely in a pool, shown
in
the AAT video, have nothing to do with the real situation of predator
avoidance
in Africa. Ask the Dasenich or Turkana people who live around Lake
Turkana:
only visiting maniacs swim in that lake." Cameron Smith

The only arguments I could find so far pro the savanna idea are these:

- hominid remains have been found with traces of stone butchering on bovid
bones etc.

- hominid remains have been found next to ostrich egg shells etc.

- some humans today run down bovids in hot dry places

This is *all* the savanna believers have!
From this they conclude that human ancestors lived in the African savanna!

A glass half full for the aquatic adherents:

I have said it before, and I will say it again: the best argument I've
yet seen for why the AAH must be wrong is the quality of the arguments
made by those who believe it is right.

Says the loon who squeaks:

2 Lions evolved from saber-tooth cats.
3 Apiths never ventured more than 50/100 yds away from a tree.

Yes, totally unlike pachyostosis in H.erectus.
