In a Vonnegut-like world, Bobby, what would beauty look like anyway?  Are
Beautiful People already the mean regressed?

Perhaps we CPs would rule?

I rather suspect that sitting on top of the totem pole has a downside to its
upside.  Still might be worth a try.

Life's full of smoke and mirrors.  We forget.

Steve,

        My wife called my attention to this auction. We learned in
Genetics
way back in '58, the principle of "regression toward the mean". That is,
if
you are out on any extreme, be it height, weight, intelligence, etc.
your
off spring
will more likely be back toward the mean.
        BTW, Joyce(my wife) and I decided we have done our bit to clean
the
gene pool. We adopted!!!
