I've done some pretty stupid things myself on occasion, and I'm allegedly much smarter than your average bear. I don 't think humans are a particularly smart species. The example you give seems to match a pattern which I think may be increasing, though. I see a growing tendancy for people to look for external causes and solutions to their problems rather than do ing something themselves. Not having a key fails to even trigger "why not?" or "how can I get one?", the default behaviour is "make enough fuss and 'someone' will fix it".

I don't think we can ever reach a complete answer, but suffiicient: maybe. It's a pretty good start point. Of course, it somewhat begs the question of what is "right".

Good to hear from you Dan. .. and good luck!

I had a quick look at the FAQ, but spotted nothing there. I'm not sure that there is such a document. You could try asking via generalcontact@ulchq.com

Welcome

One interesting view I heard was that the individual insects were largely automata, but that the hive (/swarm/colony) had some degree of intelligence. On another note, I believe bacteria (and probably other microorganisms) vastly outnumber the insects.

Welcome to the forum Waylander. You are unlikely to get a response in a topic this old where the previous contributors are no longer around. There is a UK forum which might be of interest. There is an unwanted bit of code on this site which makes it hard to format the link, but I managed it here.

Which is non-responsive. What evidence would you accept?

There is a lot of evidence. What would you consider objective proof?
