the family that walks on all fours



I'm not really sure what else there is to say.
An extraordinary family who walk on all fours are being hailed as the breakthrough discovery which could shed light on the moment Man first stood upright.

Scientists believe that the five brothers and sisters found in Turkey could hold unique insights into human evolution.

The Kurdish siblings, aged between 18 and 34 and from the rural south, 'bear crawl' on their feet and palms.

It doesn't help the "breakthrough in evolution" aspect of the story that these kids are also severely mentally retarded. Seems like an unfortunate get-together of some suck-ass genes. Too much excitement over too little science.
