on the TV show "House," House is dealing with a patient who is, literally,
too nice; i.e. unreasonably so.  His first question to the patient is,
"Are you Canadian?"  Later he posits to his medical underlings the
evolutionary disadvantage of this characteristic and so therefore this
pattern must caused by a genetic defect.  When he is challenged on his
evolutionary explanation, he sarcastically shouts, as only House can do, 
"You don't understand the way evolution works?! Where do you think we
are??!!  In the 21st century in the US!"

I thought our Canadians and our scientific community might appreciate this.
