Evolution's direction seems to be for humans to be dopes. It is clear that intelligence has not enhanced smart people's ability to reproduce or we'd outnumber the dopes. When was the last time you saw a really smart guy getting laid? Technology, etc., all created by smart people, is an aberration; intelligence is a product of mutation and it appears to be one that is not going to achieve dominance or even survive. Unfortunately for the human race, the smart people created a bunch of stuff that the dopes are using to use-up the earth. If only the smart mutation hadn't occured, the few of us alive would be living in caves, chasing animals for food. There would be no green-house gasses, no water pollution, no wars fought with FLIR, smart bombs, laser guided weapons, etc. I take comfort in the fact that we may not have to wait for the sun to burn out to put an end to all this stupidity. Stupid humans will probably use everything up and bring a much faster end. You should encourage dopes to reproduce and buy things like mpingo discs, brilliant pebbles, clever clocks, bybeee this's and thats, SUVs, big houses, play golf, etc. The faster we use it up the faster we can be done with it all.
