Split decision. The margins of confidence from the two principle studies are far apart, with one as memory serves saying no, no interbreeding, and the other saying perhaps so or likely so with error analysis I do not understand. The difficulty, or much of it is on modern contamination of the specimens, regression analysis of whether contamination make sense and so on, at least that's that's I got out of it. So, while initial reports were yes, I thought that the current opinion (in a 51/49 fashion) was no. I could be wrong, I should probably revisit it. As memory serves one approach was destructive reading, the other creating and hence maintenance of a meta-genome. It would seem that the integrity meta-genomic DNA wold be falsifiable, but this was all a few years ago, no? So I would have to go back and look. I though confidence was pretty high that there was not breeding with those that describe extant humans (there is other bones and DNA and stuff and so on from others now extinct and so on). In the absense of re-immersion and re-synthesis I should probably shut up.

I thought they had decided Neanderthal still walks and it is us. Or a little part of some of us.
