Brains and Jaws
A new report postulates that about 2.5 million years ago, a mutation caused our ancestors' jaws to relax, allowing their brains to grow, and paving the way for human intellect to evolve.
This is a pretty interesting idea, and it's published in Nature, so it's probably pretty good, but....let's just that whenever I relax *my* jaw, I'm probably doing something stupid. Teeheehee.
