[as MP3] Why was the New World slower at developing technology? Why is it when the Spanish came to "the New World" it was in a sort of "bronze age" (in general) as far as technology while Europe had Da-Vinci, the Renaissance, iron, guns etc. was it geography, religion, nutrition?	[as MP3] Will the stupid outbreed the clever? People with more education tend to delay having children until later in life, and have fewer - does this mean that the human race is evolving to avoid education, and becoming less intelligent? We find out in this Question of the Week...
[as MP3] Life from Outer Space? We know that lots of stuff rains down on us from space - but has anyone ever found evidence of life in the extra-terrestrial rubbish?	[as MP3] How long would it take to wipe all trace of man from Earth? If the human race were to become extinct, how long before all traces of our existence were to disappear?
[as MP3] Are any organisms immortal? I’d like to know if there are any life forms: plant, animal, fungus, whatever that are effectively immortal?
