So in about 30 years there will be yet-another rescue of a person in a kayak with hip waders on and no PFD. On the bright side, there seems to be no lack of attempts to weed out the gene pool by the very people who have yet to contribute to it in any meaningful way. At least if one believes the Jackass movies and America's Funniest Home Videos. I doubt anything meaningful can be accomplished before the end of the world in 2012.
