In 1935, scientists understood that Arctic ice was controlled by the Atlantic Ocean, and planned for regular freight and passenger traffic through the Northeast Passage

Ah, but these were SOVIET scientists. They also beat us into space.
I don’t mind that they beat us into space. On the other hand, it does torque my jaws that they have outlasted us there.
You just don’t understand Jason, Muslim Outreach is just SOOOoooo much more important to Obama…
As is labeling everyone in the USA who doesn’t give him bended knee Extremists and Domestic Terrorists.
_Jim who is buzy defending the militarization of America’s police can’t understand why anyone would doubt the ‘official’ government version of 9/11. I am not an engineer but I can follow the Problem-Reaction-Solution.

So despiteHezbollah Terrorists On Our Southern Border Napolitano removes border patrol personal and scraps the border fence we were promised.
Thank you Janet Napolitano for letting all those terrorists in.
Reading that piece made me wonder, maybe humans have passed ‘peak intelligence’ and nobody noticed.
I think you are right. During the Industrial Revolution successful British families like the Wedgwoods – descended from Erasmus Darwin and Josiah Wedgwood – had very large familes producing many intelligent offspring. Charles Darwin was from that family. This was happening all over Europe. A sort of inadvertent eugenics.
Now the opposite is happening. Smart people have fewer kids and cross breeding is trendy. Dumb people produce kids like there is no tomorrow. Similarly in some parts of the world marrying a cousin is the norm. This too degrades intelligence.
Dysgenics is everywhere.
So I suspect your observation, perhaps said in jest, is right on the money. Societies as a whole are getting dumber. Just look around you.
And to tie it back to Steve’s web site: it may well be one reason why so called climate scientists today are producing such poorly researched results which they and the public at large buy in to completely.
Only said in semi-jest as I have just finished reading some documents sent to me a historian friend.
Basically I wonder how many people alive today could write anything of their like.
But, and here’s the kicker, these old hand written documents not only displayed how clearly and scientifically they thought, designed their experiments and apparatus, recorded their results[some of them decades long], meticulously recorded everything, wrote their own reports in remarkable almost copperplate script, with wonderful drawing, graphs and charts – all hand draw.
One author I was informed not only wrote his study of a type of beetle, with many years of observations, in English but he also translated it to French, Italian, and German.
What V describes has been illustrated by Hollywood…

Are you sure he was actually a “climate” scientist? (I didn’t subscribe to the NYT site).
