Bringing in old writings of mine - Conservation of Thought

*These have some worthwhile value, but they have been written over a period of several years*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A thought from this past weekend: There is a law of conservation of mass, but are there any other laws similar to that? I proposition "Conservation of Thought". Yes. There is a constant amount of thought in this world. That is why people seem to be getting stupider and stupider, even though we keep dropping the standards.

In DaVinci's day there were less people than there are now, so the extremes between those who had much of the though and those who didnt was not as large. The average thought capabilites were much higher. Again, Emmerson and Thoreaou I proffer up as examples. The renesance happened and there was a high thought average. Now we watch television all day and the average thought per person is quite low. What we consider intelligence is mearly an above average holding of thought capabilies.
Now this doesnt mean that new things can not be invented cause of no new thoughts. New things come from old thoughts that are put together differently.
