Undecipherables

Is this like unmentionables?

Last night, being the good little anthropologist I am, I was watching a program on PBS about the migration of people out of Africa 45 mya. My favorite (?) quote was "If Africa is our cradle, then the Middle East is the nursery of Human Kind." Um, can someone please explain WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT? Does that actually make any kind of sense? Shouldn't cradles be IN the nursery, what? If only my English GRE scores hadn't been so low....(you know, all those analogies and Old English words come in real handyin my daily conversations)

  • Uh... maybe they mean, like the child's room as opposed to a cradle in the parents' room?
