Put an Einstein and an aborigine in the bush. Who's intelligence and knowledge will prevail? If the Einstein has any sense at all, he'll make friends with and totally rely on the aborigine, who may decide the Einstein's best use is as meat protein.

I agree, and is what James Flynn said.

But public education put that evolution on hyper speed.

Today, the kids are processing so much information and are light yeas ahead of where we were 60 years ago.
