Answer 1

I used to know the answer to that but I can't seem to remember what it is.

What  was the question again.

Horrayyyy george bush

Answer 2

Don't have to include links.  Kids can't think for themselves today, and they ask REALLY stupid questions, i.e."What is rice made of?"  They don't know when calculators are wrong.

Answer 3

I don't think it is a question of whether we are getting dumber, but whether or not we need to be as smart.

After one genius after another has learned from prior limitations, and engineered all the adversity out of life, the very stone that honed the sharp intellect is gone.

Answer 4

no, i do not believe so, I believe that we as a species are getting smarter and smarter.  Just look at all the advancements we have made in the past 100 years.

Answer 5

yep.

to the above poster: a kid that asks what rice is made of isn't stupid by any means, quite the opposite.
