Well, while it is hard to keep oneself from a little joke, you would certainly do yourself a favor reading the entire comment. Or perhaps one of the books I refer to. Or two.

As for ad hominem... well, I would be most suspicious of a history book which is not written by a historian or a physics book not written by a physicist. They might have some insights, but most of the time it's just crap. It's only reasonable to be wary of computer scientists trying to explain evolution, and even more, culture.

Mary Midgley once surveyed and found out that Creationism is most popular among trained engineers, the least among historians and... theologians (biologists were somewhere in the middle AFAIR, thankfully closer to theologians than engineers). It's described in her book Evolution as a religion (the title is quite unfortunate, she is not a Creationist and does not deny the evolution). And she is not the only one to have noticed that engineers tend to have a somewhat simplified view of such complicated issues. After all, Salem Hypothesis did not emerge from nothing.
