DR INKBEERS 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 Inkbeers 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.
