sometimes goes months with out, and sometimes each branch gets new and
updated information on a daily basis. So please be patient my research is
ongoing, and I find new and interesting things on almost a daily basis. Keep checking back; see the
last updated on the index page. Any
and all questions please do not hesitate to go to the yahoo groups listed
below join and ask any question you like.
Your input has helped shape the way I present the information, and helps me to be
more definite with
issues in showing my work.

- End of the last ice age, my
absolute favorite part of the idea that the Neanderthal and or
Cro-Magnon were nothing. All I
have to do is remember what life was like back then and the picture is
clear. You either developed a
tool that worked or you died, it is just that simple. To go through a glacier age, minor or
major, these are the tools you have to solve in order to accomplish the
goal. Now after reading the list
below you are going to tell me that well there was lots of animals that
survived the ice age intact that did not have any of the advances
below. Well I actually do have an
answer for that. We don’t have
good claws, good winter coat of fur, we do not have the hibernation
thing to hide during the heavy of the cold of winter. We do not have the
size to scare off large creatures that want to eat us. We do not have a quick moving ability,
we can at fastest run really fast over a very short distance, but just
about everything else other than the box turtle moves faster in short
bursts and long bursts. So we can
not out run, our fight without tools, out last the cold, eat, breed, or
just about anything of the items needed unless we figure out a way to
help ourselves. A building comes
in really handy when it comes to defense, and heat. Weapons evens the odds a bit with
beasts measured in tons.
Buildings also offer a nice source of storing food for a
while. When glaciers have this
really, really annoying habit of advancing and retreating, and the
building you build has to be mobile. Or you leave the protection of the
temperate zone. The temperate
zone is a space somewhere in the area of .4 mile to 2 miles from the
glacier face outward that is mostly warm unless you have an advance or
retreat. But you have to figure
out in a hurry or have a really good idea of the weather patterns to
know if it’s advancing or retreating.
Either case the family house has to move. Where is up to the math and the
sciences.
