Historically the Piltdown Man was Britain's answer to the Neanderthal. That our closest evolutionary cousin came from Britain and not Germany. Eventually it was discovered that the Piltdown Man was a hoax, 40 years after the "discovery" of a human skull combined with an ape jaw. The identity of the hoaxer remains unknown.
Why did I choose ThePiltdownMan as my internet nomme de plume? It started as what I would have thought would be a good/funny band name. Either The Piltdown Men or Josh Garner and the Piltdown Men if I could learn to sing well enough to become a frontman. Naming ones self after a world and generation spanning scientific hoax is quite hilarious to me. Unfortunately I've found that the venn diagram of people who know the reference and also stumble upon my creations is quite small.
In any case if you've read this far you may have learned something whether you wanted to or not.

Lately I've been on a journey to get better at iRacing using that link to sign up will get me a referral.
In the past I've streamed various random games most notably Shadowrun for the SNES and a couple of the Witcher games.
I try to make weird little videos on YouTube where I try to document my progress in iRacing with weekly recaps.
There is also some stuff in there from way back if you're interested in seeing a younger Pilt.
