Up to about its primary school days a child thinks, naturally, only of play. But many a form of play contains disciplinary factors. "You can't do this," or "that puts you out," shows a child that it must think, practically or fail. Now, if, throughout childhood, a brain has no opposition, it is plain that it will attain a position of "status quo," as with our ordinary animals. Man knows not why a cow, dog or lion was not born with a brain on a par with ours; why such animals cannot add, subtract, or obtain from books and schooling, that paramount position which Man holds today.

It's gonna be a good day.

I have just looked lipogram up on wikipedia. Learn something new everyday. Never heard or seen one before. I wouldn't have got the answer in a million years. Far to clever for me.

I didn't know his surname was Leonard. When did that get revealed. And what's Karl's surname do you know? I stopped watching new Simpsons a few years ago, they're nowhere near as funny as the 90's episodes. Just surreal and annoying.

From reading that I would say it's inconclusive that his surname is actuially Leonard. I would assume that Mr. Burns referring to him as Leonard would be his first name.

Feral Children and the Human-Animal Divide:

Undoubtedly, the lack of normal developmental stimuli has a devastating impact on the development of the human brain. Feral children would not be classified as human using any of the traditional criteria.
