A brilliant article on the soft, alien intelligence in the ocean - the octopus.

Obviously there's different degrees and types of intelligence between different animals, but what's really amazing, if you think about it, is that none of them have advanced one miilimetre in millenia, whereas humans continue to advance apace.

We are many light years ahead of even the most intelligent.
I think you mean SOME humans (have the capacity to advance). Sadly it seems an awful lot of us don't bother using that capacity, as a quick glance around you or viewing of reality shows would confirm.
