The simple minded ape used the tool for destruction, because destruction is the easiest of acts to perform. This destruction however, opened new lanes of thought in the apes mind, leading it to use this tool to build and to create other tools. These tools progressed over millenia and here I sit on a latop computer, a tool that many use for good, and many use for evil. As I ponder this I wonder what will evolve from this tool, what evils, and yet again, what beauties! Although quite cynical in its appearance this clip shows the duality of our evolution.

Create and then destroy (or is it destroy and then create?). Now, next film can be a sequel of "creative" dawn of man. Warm regards, Usha Rane. Dear Shri Paulo Cohelho,

The urge of destruction is in our genes. Create and then destroy (or is it destroy and then create?). Now, next film can be a sequel of “creative” dawn of man.

Warm regards,
Usha Rane.
