I'm confused here.  Would anyone have suggested that humans evoloved more
than once?  As in there were several different times and different
places on the planet where humans arose from other primate forms.
It seems to me that an event as momentous as that in evolution would have
occured only once.  

I think far more about molecules than I do about organisms (they're too
complicated), but it seems obvious to me that if we evolved only once, we
have one common ancestor.
