Climatron: Personal Blog of Kyle Vandercamp

I was reading Goldfish’s comment about the second-level passwords for HW – it triggered something and I’ve been back through my emails. Goldfish, you said you thought it might be related to human fossils.

Harrison has an impressive knowledge of archaeology, he would drop fact-laden anecdotes all the time. It comes out a bit in Monte’s interview too. Made me think about when Australopithecus sediba was announced back in early April. I emailed Harrison a link. He replied to me with a forwarded message in reply.

Hi Kyle. Thanks for this! Very exciting – as a boy I would have loved to be Matthew.

Randy.
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/09/science/09fossil.html. This is wonderful news. I still get so excited when these discoveries occur. Especially like this, when it’s by such a charming young lad. Lovely picture.

I see it’s added to the list already. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hominina_fossils.

Look forward to a visit from you in September.
In haste, Harrison.

Maybe nothing, maybe something…
