People are getting dummer, brains are getting smaller...
no surprises there, i encounter these types every day, and have done so for many many years.
Zombies will not have anything to do with idiots.
Zombies are brainy.

That#s no news. I just need to switch on my TV to realise that people have a high demand for dumba** TV. That says a lot about the average guy over here.

Evolution in the blink of an eye my arse. It's brain mites I tell'ya. The little bastages are well known to travel up through your bum and eventually migrating into your cranium. Initial symptoms begin with people digging around and scratching at their hind end. Finally ending in unintelligible babbling as if someone was using babblefish to translate Swede to English

Human brains have shrunk over the past 30,000 years, puzzling scientists who say it is not a sign we are growing dumber but that evolution is making brains leaner and more efficient.

This. There is also the fact that not only are we developing new forms of intelligence according to the article, but the size of the brain doesn't matter as much as the number of neurons. If our brain is getting smaller while the number of neurons remains more or less constant, we get a lot more bang for the buck. That is, if I remember my biology correctly and if the book in question was correct. Damn that small brain of mine
