Rebecca, my favorite
skepchick blogger and resident skeptic and female foil to an otherwise y chromosome-dominated gang over at the
Skeptics' Guide to the Universe podcast tipped me off to an amazing and addictive website that can, among other transmogrifications, give you a face only a chimp could love. In Rebecca's own words:
When creationists shake their little fists, jump up and down, and yell, "My grandpa weren’t no monkey!” I like to imagine what they must think we mean when we explain that humans and apes descended from a common ancestor. I’m pretty sure they’re thinking of some kind of monkey/human hybrid walking around in bibbed overalls. A cool web site that transforms photos with the click of a button now lets you see what your ancestor might have looked like, if the world worked the way creationists seem to think scientists say it does.
Have at it and have fun, but you have been warned! Don't blame me when you get caught at work morphing your boss's pics.
