From my osteology class, I seem to remember that the bump was typical for a male specimen of the human race. Together with square eyes it was a sure match. Have no idea if it relates to intelligence though.
When programming for my final exam paper, I was about to remove all temp files that emacs generated. Being a hard bloke at the time I always used the -rf flag to remove file. On swedish keyboards the ~ sign is next to the enter key. So when trying to write:
rm -rf *~
I slipped and wrote:
rm -rf *
3 months of coding gone! Fourtunately emacs was still running and some of the code could be saved, I will never forget the look on my coding partners face when he saw what I did. Remapped rm -rf after that so I always got a confirmation question. Being a coward is sometime useful.

Isn't the definition of a pixel, that it can't be one and a half!

Also a nice model of the fossil.
