Involuntary ignorance- what I call biological stupidity- is sad and pathetic, but there are those who try to maximize what they were given and I applaud that. What burns me up is
willful ignorance (like sub-20 mpg getting long distance co-workers who disrespect resources and efficiency) and it is running rampant, and there are no signs of it slowing down.
