I don't see the connection either and they don't explain.  Kind of like being 
on this list.  It reminds me of the 50's movie, was it Invasion of the Body 
Snatchers? where it ends, keep watching the skies ...

This portion grabbed my curiosity -- in what way (anthropologists out there?) 
does the fact (?) that humans used to be vulnerable to both above and below 
explain anything about why or how "we" view the world?  
<<Berger concluded man's ancestors had to survive not just being hunted from 
the ground, but from the air. Such discoveries are "key to understanding why we 
humans today view the world they way we do," he said.
Berger's research has been reviewed by others and is due to appear in the 
February edition of the American Journal of Physical Anthropology.>>
