@ And a lack of imagination is just that - a lack of imagination. For me, I don't believe being unable (or unwilling) to consider the possibility of things that are neither fact nor reality at this point in time is something of which to be proud. Like the OP wrote, "It's amazing that we've progressed as far as we have with these people existing."
