So, that's why men still compete for alpha status. We lost our tails, and still whack each other with sticks. The majority still wish to live in the past. Once a monkey, always a monkey. I wonder why we were given the ability for complex thought when the majority just wants to join troops. Modern monkey's love money and power. Sounds like we would've been better off if we kept the tails.

It seems if nature has a tendency to outsmart itself. It may be universally very difficult for any planet to produce a spacefaring civilization before it depletes its own planetary recources or destroys its environment.
