What is your definition of "success"?

If you're a child of a western culture you're more likely to have been a bottle baby or have been the product of assisted childbirth. It seems that this might put you at a -natural_ disadvantage if not a genetic disadvantage.

Global changes in process will determine what a genetic dis/advantage is. What has survived to this age has been advantageous.
