Sorry.....this is preposterous, is it not?

Evolutionary change happens w.....a.....y slower than this.  It's 
only very recently, in evolutionary terms, that most humans have not 
been breastfed for at least a couple of years.

Height and growth are influenced by nutrition in indivduals and 
indivdually , but the configuration of facial features or organs 
takes a long, long, long, long, long time to change.

In fact, nutrition has improved over the most recent generations (in 
terms of quantity). That's why in developed countries, our own kids 
are taller, on average, than their grandparents, and certainly their 
great- and great-great grandparents.
