Humans are no different.
I find the urban way of life much to my liking. Having to constantly fend for yourself blows. You can have that bullsquat, if it makes you feel manly. Personally, having grown up in the country, I find it does NOT lead to a more hardy and intelligent stock. Quite the contrary. Isolation from the outside world leads to xenophobia, ignorance and in some cases--insanity. When I go home and see old friends, it only serves to remind me of why I left and never went back. God, what a bunch of drunken, paranoid losers.

Dave
