ElM, you are obviously bewildered and confused: <And MQ keep saying that is DNA that counts... Laughable.> DNA is just the design. What people think changes and you might have experienced that yourself for example. You have probably at some stage thought something is correct and a good idea only to learn later than your thinking was bung. Ideas aren't part of DNA. But DNA leads one to have ideas about things. For example, DNA drives hunger. What one does about hunger is another matter altogether. Some things taste good to one sort of DNA [such as wood to various grubs] and some things taste good to other sorts of DNA, [such as fish to seals]. So humans have a range of foods that taste good. The DNA drives the urge to consume said things. How one goes about getting them is more to do with ideas and thinking. For example, one can never hunt a sheep, but eat roast lamb each day by working in cyberspace and emailing some money to a supermarket. But people who are incapable of figuring out cyberspace are unable to eat like that. So, there is a digital divide and they will not eat lamb ordered by email. Some of said incapables are incapable because they choose not to learn about cyberspace. Others lack the cognitive ability to figure it out. Others are not in a situation where they can get the information and resources to learn about it and figure it out. It's a combination of DNA, choice and situation. Each component has to be present. Now, read it again slowly so you don't misquote me again. You are right that DNA counts. But it's not the only thing. Mqurice
