My equation looks something like this:
# Brain >= 0,1
brain> Your contribution to society / Society's contribution to you
This value should be able to exceed 1.0 across the board. In fact, if
it doesn't, then as a society we're moving backward.
Rick, what's YOUR ratio?
Oh wait, you mightn't be able to run that code. You may need to
download an upgraded brain.
