It's not so much that I despise the unwashed masses, it's just that the greatest common denominator tends to go very low, as the total number of participants goes up. Take a billion Nobel prize winners and the only things they will all have in common will be sex and violence, that and the Nobel prize.
My point is, it's not that the masses are unwashed, it's just the masses - law of averages.
Thanks! I was going to go into normal distributions, communities of interest, etc, but I just used some sensational language that got the point across. For anyone offended by the original, biohacker gave the explanation I was too lazy to write.
