This is what i have to say about that... David M. Bresnahan really summed it all up in this letter to the president...\n\nMR. PRESIDENT, I'M HEADED TO MEXICO\n\nDavid M. Bresnahan\nApril 1, 2006\nNewsWithViews.com\n\nDear President Bush:\n\nI'm about to plan a little trip with my family and extended family,\nand I would like to ask you to assist me.  I'm going to walk across\nthe border from the U.S.  into Mexico, and I need to make a few\narrangements.  I know you can help with this.\n\nI plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports,\nimmigration quotas and laws.  I'm sure they handle those things the\nsame way you do here.\n\nSo, would you mind telling your buddy, President Vicente Fox, that\nI'm on my way over?  Please let him know that I will be expecting\nthe following:\n\n1. Free medical care for my entire family.\n\n2.  English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might\nneed, whether I use them or not.\n\n3. All government forms need to be printed in English.\n\n4. I want my kids to be taught by English-speaking teachers.\n\n5. Schools need to include classes on American culture and history.\n\n6.  I want my kids to see the American flag flying on the top of the flag pole at their school with the Mexican flag flying lower down.\n\n7.  Please plan to feed my kids at school for both breakfast and lunch.\n\n8.  I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy access to government services.\n\n9.  I do not plan to have any car insurance, and I won't make any effort to learn local traffic laws.\n\n10.  In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from Pres. Fox to leave me alone, please be sure that all police officers speak English.\n\n11.  I plan to fly the U.S.  flag from my house top, put flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th.  I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.\n\n12.  I would! also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, and don't enforce any labor laws or tax laws.\n\n13.  Please tell all the people in the country to be extremely nice and never say a critical word about me, or about the strain I might place on the economy.\n\nI know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all the people who come to the U.S.  from Mexico.  I am sure that Pres.  Fox won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely.\n\nHowever, if he gives you any trouble, just invite him to go quail hunting with your V.P.\n\nThank you so much for your kind help.\n\nSincerely,\n\nDavid M. Bresnahan\n  2006 David M. Bresnahan - All Rights Reserved

Do your own homework!\n\nBut nematodes are in a funny spot, since they may or may not have changed much in a long, long time.  Of course this probably just suggests that they are about perfectly adapted to the environments they choose to live in, and any mutation that individuals may have undergone offered no significant advantage.

It's well accepted that the larger the gene pool, the better chance a species has of adapting to change and surviving famine, disease and other disaster.\n\nCulturally, we're no different. The larger the variety of options we have, the better our chances for coming out of a disaster well. Cultures and empires last centuries, so it's hard for us to see this happening in our society. But we still need that diversity for our collective well-being in the long run.

Technically, yes.  The trouble is that you have to adapt a lot more to hard contacts.  If you take a break from them, you will have to re-adapt (meaning that they'll be uncomfortable).

My answer is ot supposed to completly argue on the subject, but it may yet give something to think about!!\n\nBecause when humans come up in an area without changing it, they settle in an armless way (if they notice a flooding risk, they adapt themselves to the area: egyptian with the Nile 3000 years ago for exemple).\nOn the other hand, when they show up and develop altering the area situation, such things as flooding that did not happen before may occur. Which would explain why most of the disaster happen in these cases.\n\nMy opinion is that humans should always try to adapt themselves to the situations instead of trying to adapt the situations to themselves (which tend to be more and more frequent unfortunatly).

Because ours brains evolution faster and better of the rest of the species, and we star kill and conquest with the help of our brains. We change the facts of we are weak and not ready prepare for the weather. I hope in somewhere in the future we learn that we need to improve our tolerance, love, peace respect; not only for the other humans also for the plants, animals and for our planet the earth; before it´s to late.\nMaybe then we can call us humans, now we are animals with a big brain a lot of technology(for arms) and bad intentions.

that because people are not open minded and only think of themselves. we cant change those type of people just be tolerant of them.

It is in the human nature to adjust to the circumstances as best as they can and fight back relentlessly. We may be facing doom but hey, we like to believe in miracles. We always hope that something may eventually turn up and help us.

I think that they are in need of adjusting. They will work it out, don't worry.

People change because they're very resilient and our survival instinct helps us adapt to the surroundings we are in.  This applies to the physical environment and even the culture of the society there.

Learn to accept change. It may seem change is bad, but it is only bad if you can't adapt. If you make better choices in life you'll find that change is mostly a positive developement.

We would sound really irritating and people would play tricks on us all the time by walking up behind us and plugging up our  breathing hole in our backs. I don't believe in evolution though, or why are there still apes? Adaptation is natural and selective breeding is mutations that we are good with, like with dogs, cats, horses, and cattle. But to think that we were apes is just nonsense, even Darwin recanted most of his theories before he died.

Only if we stay on them...keep their feet to the fire!\n\nIt takes determination, diligence, and tenacity on our part...without any room for fatigue.  We must endure until we secure!

Because of evolution and adaptation.

Tough answer, I guess we get used to them being around and providing the emotional, physcial support, etc... they provide.  It's probably mother nature's way off keep us together and insuring the continuance of the species.

Every system is capable of change.  These changes are subject to both internal and external pressures that require a being to adapt.  For example, an internal pressure that would require a change would be the sexual maturation of an organism.  An external pressure that could cause a change would be something like a significant temperature change, or a change in predation patterns.

Both. It used to be an adaptive response because it made us believe in fairy stories and made us easier to control by power cliques. It is now maladaptive because the power cliques of today have much more power and are much more dangerous.
