This really casts doubt on the so-called intelligence of the human race.

Giant wind farms are much worse changing planetary wind patterns.

Reminded me of the objections when daylight saving time (turning the clocks forward/back) was first proposed in Queensland, Australia's redneck equivalent of North America, it appears. The main objections then were that carpets and curtains would fade more and cows wouldn't know when milking time was.

The trouble with the average of anything - and particularly intelligence - is that half the population is less than it.

Hey, this is the general forum, where nobody should even notice there's a difference between median and mean. 😉

Do you see yourself as having more than average intelligence compared to your fellow Americans?
