I was all prepared to say something and that first comment freak messed me up.
Anyway, back on track.
The beginning of that story from CNN took my breath away.
What a nation of ignorant people we have become. No wonder evolution is questioned by some... They have devolved, not evolved.
What does an idiot look like? They come with headgear optional I guess.
