Genetics again

Now here's a weird thing:

The sudden success of geeks outside of monasteries is causing a spectacular
increase in cases of autism.
We're evolving into mathematical prodigies with no social skills......

Either that, or we're splitting into two different breeds - on the one hand
we have the caretaker drones, capable of solving complex equations in their
heads, and debugging assembler routines from memory, they'll retreat off to
their quiet world in the walls of our dome cities, leaving the tall
attractive bisexual morons to breed like rabbits in the world the geeks
create for them. Then one day when they realise there are too many - they'll
start to cull the herd.....

Now that's a vision of the future you've never seen before...

PS. Dreamed that the world was covered in an apocalyptic flood last night,
so now's a good time to buy inflatable dinghys. Then again - I also saw baby
loch-ness monsters, but that could mean anything.

PPS. Absolutely no drugs were imbibed to create this email. Anyone who
thinks giving me drugs might help is warned that it just might make me
worse.
