In light of those threads I should perhaps point out that the news here is the discovery of the big feet and its implications. Ever since the 'Hobbits' were found in Indonesia, Scientists have argued whether they are just regular Pygmies (Homo Sapien) with rare diseases accounting for their diminutive stature and small skulls, or whether they represent a whole new subspecies of Man, dubbed Homo floresiensis. Those in favour of the latter theory will feel that the Hobbits' huge feet proves once and for all that they are indeed a separate branch of the Human race that up until quite recently lived side by side with modern Homo Sapiens.
