the more advanced species

	I would refer you to the c-value paradox; many plants and toads 
have more "complex" genomes than we do, depending on what you call 
complex.  as for man not being the more advanced species - i think that 
depends on many subjective definitions such as progress and what is advanced.
As far as being in touch with our natural environment i think that most 
of us are far inferior - how many of us feel confident that we could 
feed themselves in the wilderness without gun or arrow?  that to me seems 
to be the important thing - the ability to stay alive.
