Do you still need proof that people are morons? Well, look no further than how dumbed down our technology is. I was installing a printer/fax at work and had to power it down. It then said it was shutting down and displayed the message "This will disable all functions." Really? It won't work if it's turned off? Who could have fucking figured out that one on their own?
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
