<blockquote><p>&#8220;According to an article at the BBC, an evolutionary theorist in London suggests that humanity may <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/6057734.stm">split into two sub-species</a> within the next 100,000 years. From the article: &#8216;The descendants of the genetic upper class would be tall, slim, healthy, attractive, intelligent, and creative and a far cry from the &#8220;underclass&#8221; humans who would have evolved into dim-witted, ugly, squat goblin-like creatures.&#8217;&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center"> <img src="http://bobburns.mycottage.com/albumIMAGES/Tm_morlock.jpg" alt="Morlock" border="1" height="250" hspace="4" vspace="4" width="299" /></p>
<p>This made me thing about the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eloi">Eloi</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morlock">Morlock</a>, created by H. G. Wells for his 1895 novel, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Time_Machine"><em>The Time Machine</em></a>.</p>
<p>However, in this version, the Morlocks are the stupid ones and the Eloi are the smart ones. In any case, it was woth a laugh.</p>
