Booyah, some German dudes just completed a rought draft of the full genome (63% so far) of the Neanderthal! Fuckers were lactose intolerant.

Yeah I found that interesting. Agriculture and the ability to farm animals has gradually evolved us to accept milk. Getting nutrition from milk after being weened was a big advantage to a culture trying to farm food. Even today Lactose tolerance is only at 80%. I thought that was pretty damn interesting too.
