CB: Did you get this idea from that scene in _2001 Space Odessey_ ? ( Which is exactly an ape pickng up a stick and rendering it as a weapon with a seeming implication of some big historical change ) . This would make us _homo bellicosus_ ? War is not politics by other violent means. War is the essential human activity.

WS: Charles - This was meant to be ironic - I thought the refernce to "Also Sprach Zarathustra" gave the clue.
