...cold cases. Sometime between 50,000 and 75,000 years ago, a Neanderthal male known to scientists as Shanidar 3 received a wound to his torso, limped back to his cave in what is now Iraq and died several weeks later.

Gates was as effective a bureaucratic player as Cheney - and much more of a pragmatist.
