My experience with humans is that they are only faintly aware of themselves and how they interact with the world around them and the world inside themselves.

They live in the world of "do"...they simply move about doing the next thing without a bit of thought about why they are doing it. Their behavior is almost completely habitual.

Of course, this doesn't apply to us Freepers.;-)

As an aside, I think almost all humans have fine brains...it's just that they don't use them.

I think of all the people who have said out loud : Buddy, I’m just trying to make it through the week to Friday (with no time to ponder beyond the immediate issue and moment).
Then I extrapolate to all the further people who don’t say these things out loud but are thinking and acting them nonetheless. Then I start to feel frightened for the coming of A.I. to “help” us live better.
