     Some anthropologists now think that for millions of years man's diet was more than 80 percent vegetarian. Alan vega investigates Twenty-four million years ago when our ancestors lived in the tropical forests of central Africa,they probably ate plants and fruit, and from time to time a few insects.

Some of the world's greatest composers, writers and inventors had an unpleasant time at school liike this. Later, when they became succesful, nobody was more surprised than their old classmates. Were these people stupid? No.of course not!
