A Short History of Nearly Everything
Variante: onsidera el hecho de que durante 3,8 millones de años, un período de tiempo mayor que las montañas, los ríos y los océanos de la Tierra, cada uno de tus antepasados por ambas líneas ha sido lo suficientemente atractivo como para encontrar un compañero, lo suficientemente sano para reproducirse, y lo suficientemente bendecido por el destino y las circunstancias para vivir el tiempo suficiente para hacerlo. Ni uno solo de tus antepasados pertinentes fue aplastado, devorado, ahogado, muerto de hambre, hundido, clavado, prematuramente herido, o desviado de cualquier otra manera de su búsqueda vital de entregar una pequeña carga de material genético a la pareja adecuada en el momento oportuno a fin de perpetuar la única secuencia posible de combinaciones hereditarias que podrían resultar — con el tiempo, sorprendentemente, y muy brevemente — en ti.
