      I could find the best pizza joint within 2000 meters much faster than aboriginal man. I could choose a better wine from any given selection than a neanderthal woman. I could write a better novel than either of them. I'm pretty confident I would prefer my dinner to theirs.

      I guess I'll really feel like a jerk next time I need to outrun a leopard or leap up a sheer cliff face, but until that day comes, I think I win.
      If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama

      If a modern man went back in time with a gun and the tools to upkeep his gun and make bullets, he would be worshiped as a god.

      Fine, man's ancient ancestors are physically superior to us in every way. A typical Neanderthal can beat me in speed, jumping ability, physical strength, stamina, and overall bodily condition.

      But I think I still win with aeronautics and chemistry.
      198.726% of people will not realize that this percentage is impossible given what we are measuring. If you enjoy eating Monterey Jack cheese, put this in your sig and add 3^4i to the percentage listed.

      That got me thinking about something. Lets say you strip modern man of all the technological advantages, do you think a person trained in hand to hand combat and modern fighting techniques could beat up a Neanderthal?

      Why not? All martial artist know that brute strength isn't even nearly enough to beat someone who has also skill.

      Just poke his eye and crush his testicles.
      Jujutsu is the gentle art. It's the art where a small man is going to prove to you, no matter how strong you are, no matter how mad you get, that you're going to have to accept defeat. That's what jujutsu is.

      I would like to see a martial artist fight a wild grizzly bear.

      Or a gorilla, for that matter.
