    No. That's a popular misunderstanding. There never was a first woman nor man. It refers to the MRCA - most recent common ancestor. NOT the only woman in her time. See the Wiki below for the explanation.

    How do you feel about predictions that 'The Rapture' will occur in May of...

    I always have a bit of a laugh when I see the local billboard advertising that one. It just shows that there are people out there with too much time on their hands and enough money to put up stupid signs.
