that is a great story, thanks for sharing hope he stays safe and if/when he has a choice to filter in to society i hope he chooses to say where he is, its cool the government is behind him, he doesn't even know what the government is i bet
pretty neat. reminds me of the tribal people who looked up and saw a huge bird.. which was a plane. indians get the shaft everytime.. wtf.
^^^ They have to sadly, otherwise you and I would still be rubbing one out to cave paintings by firelight.
This is a truly fascinating story. I wish I had something profound and intellectual to say about this... But all I can think about is this could be for a new sitcom: A jungle man moves to new york city, learns English, and becomes a lawyer! Similar to the caveman lawyer, but more plausible.
^Satellite imagery tracking his whereabouts? Great story. They should parachute a woman in for him. (Of course with cooking utensils)
hate to say it, but i agree with you. i dont think they were very good at procreating either. Either their genetics killed off their babies asap, or they just werent horny enough human beings to procreate. I dont think they were eager to "advance" as a civilization either. They just wanted to sit in their teepees all day and smoke herbs. lol. thats a mean generalization. otherwise, we'd be either rubbing out to cave paintings or they'd have land dominance in north/south americas.
I just read about the Lone Woman of San Nicolas the other day after google map exploring (yes it is what it sounds like... im a nerd). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juana_Maria How'd you like to miss that bus? All alone for 18 years.
I don't mean to be a grammar Nazi, but I noticed this thread title is "And than there was 1...", as I recall than is used when quantifying like More than or Less than; Shouldn't it read "And then there was 1..."?
And, it also deserves a "One" instead of "1", but I love reading about these instances of solitude too much to notice.
Points taken, grammar was never my favorite subject in school and I always mix up than and then. official ruling is - "Than is used only in comparisons, so if you're comparing something use than. If not, then you have to use then."
