how long did it take monkeys to jump the fence into the bipedal maximus region, aka homo sapiens? centuries,millenia? or did it just occur relatively quickly? and why? we see bacteria evolving in order to survive the onslaught of drugs, but monkeys still exist, even after something caused some of them to change to homo sapiens. Why didnt all monkeys evolve? Why was man formed by this evolution, and are we the only species aware of our evolvement? Do other living organisms have concious thought? If not, why?
