Refering to the OP linked in this thread, I really dont get his point, in what way does that video represent "scientists catching up"?
As for the video itself, I found it interesting and fun but nothing really that ground breaking.
Because if you skip to the end, they mention mitochondrial Eve, and Y-chromosomal Adam.

I was a weird baby, then. I used to sleep to heavy metal.Actually the guy in video said some nonsense, like that babies will cry because other babies cry. Actually babies will cry when they hear any loud noise, including other babies crying.
Oh no, you don't mean that someone misunderstood mt-Eve and Y-Adam again?Because if you skip to the end, they mention mitochondrial Eve, and Y-chromosomal Adam.
Sometimes too wellAfter 4 minutes in, the stunning revelation that humans emulate other humans.
Huh? Then what were those kingdoms that spent most of the Middle Ages throwing knights and longbowmen at each other?At 7:30, something odd about how England and France didn't exist prior to the industrial revolution.
Quibble alert! These are the most recent maternal and paternal line ancestors. The MRCA of all men/women over all lines of descent is almost guaranteed to be a different person.At 9:32, he says the Bible got it right that we all came from two people.

I almost watched it, and I'm glad you stopped meIn summary: a rather pointless ramble on why we should be empathic towards our fellow man, which completely misses the point that we are empathic towards our fellow man, as evidenced by the Haiti earthquake which the video cites.
It was all just a Monty Python sketch!Huh? Then what were those kingdoms that spent most of the Middle Ages throwing knights and longbowmen at each other?
Gah, you're right, curse youQuibble alert! These are the most recent maternal and paternal line ancestors. The MRCA of all men/women over all lines of descent is almost guaranteed to be a different person.
I did it so that no one else would have to watch it. My eyes, they burnThanks for the summary. I almost watched it, and I'm glad you stopped me
As a teenager in the '80's, going to sleep to the sounds of Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, etc, I can attest to the soothing sounds of (pre-modern) Metallica and other metal bands being a soothing sound to go to sleep to.I said loud noise.
