As for Gerard's follow up, I remind him of the immortal wisdom of Jack
Handey:
"Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself.
Basically, it's made up of two separate words ? "mank" and "ind." What do
these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind."
Being the misanthrope that I am, I would like to point out that it's also an
anagram of "damn kin".
