Keith,

   Just remember two things: in the competetion between artificial
intelligence and native stupidity, the latter wins ever time. And, the
reason the search for extraterrestrial intelligence has been continuing for
so many decades is that there is so little terrestrial intelligence to be
found.

   Enjoy your lectures ... and travel safely.
