where is that guy who claimed to have an EE in physics (and the guy who claimed
to have a EEE in physics) when we need someone to explain to the Peanut Gallery
just what in hell a siphon is.

geesh.

Interestingly, Forbes or Businessweek or one of those mags recently published
data that clearly showed the reason lower class people don't live as long as
middle and upper-middle class people (dispite wildly available health care to
most all) is because lower class people can't/won't read health labels,
can't/won't seek medical care when they should, can't/won't follow a doctor's
advice, can't//won't read the labels on medicine bottles, can't/won't follow
prescribed medications. Interesting is that while the average IQ of a white
collar worker in about 111 (a little above average) the average IQ of a lower
class worker is about 89 (pretty much below average), or a 22 point spread.

One of the reasons the human population continues to improve in intelligence is
that the dumb die off quicker and they breed less often (on the average)
because they have less resources to support children and their children die
more often before reaching breeding age.
