[ExI] Ant mega-colony takes over world

[Lee Corbin]

Ants from the same mega-colony don't fight, even if
they're from different continents!

The same thing seems to have happened to people.
One group descended about 80,000 years ago, perhaps
fought with---but anyway replaced---the "other colony"
neaderthals. And then, yes, it did take thousands of
years, don't fight anymore.

I have myself witnessed people from Europe and Africa
getting along quite well in the city where I live. Even
few nations go to war anymore. Unbiased neanderthal
observers probably saw homo sapiens as a different
meta-tribe.
