So the next TET will, if you think about it, be called "I get first post!"

Until biotechnology provides us with an upgraded model of the human beast or until a neural aggression blocker is developed, it is unfortunately so that we have to suffer the human shortcomings that have plagued our kind for the last few dozen millenniums.
