It seems that the on-again, off-again idea that an impact caused the extinction of Pleistocene megafauna is off again. I'm always suspicious when a group of scientists claim they have found The Answer.
I always have thought that "Pleistocene Megafauna" would be an awesome name for a band!
Still, while I can accept a massive impact for the Permian/Triassic boundary, and for the Cretaceous/Paleocene boundary, there's just not enough evidence in for an impact to explain the Pleistocene/Holocene boundary...
