Hi Pen;

They're totally dead on about people developing a laziness of the brain, but way off about us getting dumber. Especially the part about genetics. Just more scientists trying to write a paper that has an impact. We are really getting lazy though, and it's completely true that intelligent machines are tasked with replicating themselves. Tell you anything in particular?

You know the saying if you don't use it you lose it.... that applies to the brain as well.....
