You want apologies too from those of us who decide that less is more?
Were we mammals a nuisance to the big dinosaurs too?

EVOLVE OR ELSE! 

Once upon a time lived a race of dinosaurs whose violence and appetite
alarmed everybody... One day a Little Ant, tired of feeling stepped
upon, and worried about her cooperative enterprise, came up to the
Americanus Raptor--the biggest dinosaur of them all--and asked: "Why
you always have to protect the right of the dinosaurs, who do nothing
but eat everything in their path? Why don't the little animals get a
fair share of this world?" Then the dinosaur, who had a bad temper,
replied: "Bigger is better, so get lost..."

The Little Ant, then, gathered the whole cooperative and said:
"Comrades, our world is being threatened by the dinosaurs, so..." And
at that precise moment the Earth was hit by a big ball of fire,
destroying all but the small animals...
