Wow, another cool article at the bottom of that page:

Language gene keeps apes tongue tied

http://cbc.ca/stories/2002/08/15/lang_gene020815

quick clip:

"When the researchers compared DNA from humans originating in Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Guinea, they found the language gene became established within the last 200,000 years.

The time frame matches the evolutionary split between modern humans and Neanderthals.
