A Basic Failure of Evolution

You know how shall we say the "weak" are supposed to die out and therefore the "strong" of the speciies will propagate? Or so Darwin hoped. Well, I was in a meeting today and a fellow english professor, A FELLOW ENGLISH PROFESSOR, asked "what does the word 'ambulate' mean?" Now I don't mean to sound high falutin' here, but AMBULATE? C'mon, I can accept that students won't know it but someone teaching English at my level really should know ambulate.

Someone get me a gun. Apparently there are some tasks mother nature needs a little bit of help with.
