Glenn assigns me an arbitrary starting point. He's wrong about that. I
don't believe we can be precise with it, but we can certainly get in the
ballpark. The only certainty is this: 5.5 million years ain't in the
ballpark. It ain't even in the city, the country or the world. The only
place it is, is a pinpoint in Texas.
