I clearly remember that he mentioned 10,000 years in his book.

Whatever, even if fully modern humans (120,000 years) are more recent than
the widespread use of cooking (100,000-400,000 years?), it does not prove
that cooking is OK... and it does not mean it is not either. This is an
endless debate.

I suppose many diseases do not leave marks in skeletal remains. How can you
be sure that humans didn't have flus 2000000 years ago? :-)

I suppose that cooked meat is safe (with respect to germs) if eaten
just
after cooking and that raw meat is safe if preserved in proper conditions
(of temperature, humidity...)


P.S. I am quite busy working in my apartment these days, so I can't
participate to the list very actively.
