	   It is also worth noting that everything that might appear to have a
   selective advantage is not necessarily selected for.  Why isn't everybody
   endowed with Carl Lewis' ability to run?

Almost everybody can run 2/3 as fast as he can.  I do not claim
everybody's ESP talents should be equal, but that the best would be
almost the norm.

If a paleolithic man could have done what Geller claims to be able to
do, with as little energy expenditure, he would have had little to fear
from predators and would have had a full stomach.
