Once we are off topic of the offtopic thread, I recently watched "Idiocracy" (by Mike Judge). The theme is somewhat close to me as the publisher pressured to dumb down the book to make it more accessible.

But here is a proposition: the "Idiocracy" future have no chance to happen (and concequently eugenics ideas are irrelevant). Why? Because soon enough you'll be able to purchase good genes on the market! And who would wan't to get not the best available genes to their children?

As it is likely to happen first in America (where else), then you'll suddenly find that the US average IQ start pulling ahead of the rest of the world. What an irony. Received on Fri Feb 16 2007 - 14:38:29 CST
