As we noted last week, an international team of scientists has unveiled a landmark discovery: an amazingly well-preserved 47-million year old fossil found in Germany that could be the common ancestor of all monkeys, apes, and human beings.

This team has put together an excellent website with articles, photos, and video presentations to explain the significance of their find, and they’re calling it: The Link.

Drop out of school before your mind rots from exposure to our mundane educational system. Forget about the Senior Prom and go to the library and *educate yourself* if you've got any guts. Some of you like *pep rallies* and plastic robots who tell you what to read. Forget I mentioned it. *This song has no message.* Rise for the flag salute. -- Liner notes for "Hungry Freaks, Daddy" on "Freak Out!"
