An extended reply to Mendez et al.: The 'extremely ancient' chromosome   that still isn't
  Earlier this year, we published a scathing critique of a paper by Mendez et al. (2013) in which the claim was made that a Y chromosome was 237,000-581,000 years old. Elhaik et al. (2014) also attacked a popular article in Scientific American by the senior author of Mendez et al. (2013), whose title was "Sex with other human species might have been the secret of Homo sapiens's [sic] success" (Hammer 2013). Five of the 11 authors of Mendez et al. (2013) have now written a "rebuttal," and we were allowed to reply. Unfortunately, our reply was censored for being "too sarcastic and inflamed." References were removed, meanings were castrated, and a dedication in the Acknowledgments was deleted. Now, that the so-called rebuttal by 45% of the authors of Mendez et al. (2013) has been published together with our vasectomized reply, we decided to make public our entire reply to the so called "rebuttal." In fact, we go one step further, and publish a version of the reply that has not even been self-censored.
