Civilization is doomed because people are intelligently adapting to the situation around them rather than relying on blind obedience to authority? I suspect your definition of "civilization" may be somewhat different than mine if that's what you mean. (For the record, though, I'm a stickler about stop signs.

Speed limits, on the other hand...) -- I would rather be exposed to the inconvenience attending too much Liberty than those attending too small degree of it. - Thomas Jefferson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
