IQ doesn't necessarily incline one towards science/math. Maybe they'd design
architecturally wonderful, yet fully functional, caves. Maybe they'd write
bat poetry or ultrasonic symphonies or decide to take over the world (for
the good of all, of course). And the guano? Hey, told you they were genetically
modified: they shit guacamole. The tortilla chip trees, unfortunately, were
never operational.

football reference because quite frankly, I want to see that. I am worried about the vegetables
though -- do they carry their own knives?"
Yes, I feel the same way about all organized sports. I guess one of my genes
must have mutated. Not only do I personally dislike them and how people behave
vis-à-vis them, I don't have a high regard for them politically as well.
This quote by Noam Chomsky pretty much sums it up:
"Sports have nothing to do with fair play. They are bound
up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all
rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence.
Sports play a societal role in engendering jingoist and
chauvinist attitudes. They're designed to indoctrinate a
community to support, to be committed to, war."
As for the vegetables, you/they need no knifes. There's a place on their
bottoms that looks a lot like a belly button. You just press it and they
do their thing.
