Dr Curry's theory may strike a chord with readers who have read H G Wells' classic novel The Time Machine, in particular his descriptions of the Eloi and the Morlock races.

In the 1895 book, the human race has evolved into two distinct species, the highly intelligent and wealthy Eloi and the frightening, animalistic Morlock who are destined to work underground to keep the Eloi happy.

Correct me If I'm wrong, but in the book were not the eloi pretty and simple minded, and the morlocks beast like in appearance but higher in intelligence. The morlocks didn't serve the eloi, they farmed them and raised them as livestock.

Yeah that's pretty much the plot.

This is just eugenics by stealth. I read a while back some twit had the theory that as in the Middle ages that wealth and power were natural selection processes that produced attractive, handsome upper classes and the unattractive lower classes. He may have some point but as his critic pointed out that for example crossing Arnold with Angie Harmon would be a disaster. Her features and her build, on a male child would not be Mr. America material, especially combined with Arnold's jaw.

This is already happening, just look at the guy that pissed on someone in another thread. Probelm is there is more Morlocks than Eloi.....
