Linguist, author and university professor Noam Chomsky talks about the emergence of language, which he calls "a species specific property...an identifying property of human beings." Dr. Chomsky postulates that language emerged as recently as fifty or sixty thousand years ago in, "....a sudden outburst of creative capacity..." Dr. Chomsky adds that Jared Diamond has called this "a great leap forward." Produced by INTELECOM Intelligent Telecommunications. www.intelecom.org
