doesn't the article you link state that they might not have died out at all ?

They went extinct, or were simply absorbed into the modern human population, about 30,000 years ago.

also the fact that non Africans all have Neanderthal DNA only further backs up the claim that they did not die out ...

in other words .. if Neanderthalers died out . ;then so did the Human Being with no Neanderthal DNA .. except for Africans though ..

so you could take it one step further and the only PURE BRED Humans are Africans ? all the rest of us are inbred bastards ??
