DR INKBEER’S THEORY GAINS WEIGHT
Renowned scientist and social anthropologist, Dr Inkbeer, is set to prove his socio-inteligencia coexistence theory. It states that intense levels of sociability and true intelligence are interdependent. To prove his theory, Dr Inkbeer has been travelling throughout the world, conducting social experiments. Over the course of several weeks, volunteers are put through a series of mental and physical challenges – see figure #1. The highest achievers are rewarded with an all expenses paid trip around the world, stopping at the greatest party destinations on earth. Dr Inkbeer’s final destination will be the island country of Singapore.

SINGAPORE EXPERIMENT

Singapore.
Area
: 620 sq km (239 sq mi)
Population
: 3.5 million (growth rate 1.15%)

Singapore has been chosen by Dr Inkbeer as the site for his final experiment.
Because he requires a South-east Asian country to make this theory truly world-proof.
A sampling population of 10,000 volunteers is expected as the experiment is a highly complicated one and needs to be indicative of a true Asian sample. Over the course of several weeks, these volunteers are put through a series of mental and physical challenges and test for any correlation between social skills and intelligence. The Singapore Experiment will commence on 19/02/02, however to participate volunteers need to register immediately.
