It doesn't take high-level intelligence to wear undies, nor shoes. It can be challenging to ignite things though, requiring eye-hand co-ordination and other intellectual attributes. There isn't an unlimited supply of people capable of semi-flying an airliner, and they did their dash. It was only because people have been taught by authorities to be so compliant all the time that 3 of the airliners were crashed and the fourth failed to get to its target. The stupid guys who tried exploding LPG containers in Glasgow airport didn't even know that LPG tanks don't explode so simply. To get a bleve the whole tank has to rupture and release all contents, not just have a valve blowing off. In the movies, cars explode in huge fireballs. In practise, that doesn't happen. Petrol doesn't explode, it just burns fast. Mqurice
