I was reading about this the other day too - quite cool! Apparently we're keeping an extra artery that would normally go as we grow up that goes to our hands.. as well as smaller mouths.

Makes you wonder if it's down to keyboard usage and not seeing people in real life, lol !

If humans are evolving just because of their activities, as opposed to environmental adaptation and needs; then why are Jewish boy babies still being born with a foreskin? That's 3000 years' worth of human activity.

Not just Jewish, other fairy stories and the royal family also mutilate their children.

By the way, aren't babies born without all/most teeth?

IIRC, babies are born with their stash of teeth, just not emerged yet?

My second - born took a nasty tumble when about a year of age, and the dentist said it may affect his adult teeth.
Sure enough (and almost thirteen years later) , one of the two very front teeth is a bit dodgy - looking......

I think so, I am also almost sure wisdom teeth do not begin to appear until the teens - which is why they are called wisdom teeth.
