Climate & Intellect:
"Where, Geographically speaking, of a priori unique environment continuities, the inherent periodicity of the occurrence of interference is at a relatively low frequency, then the rate of dissipation of ignorance is proportionally low, and vice versa.
“The relatively lowest inherent periodicity of interference of forceful variables-- of experience in the dynamic environment (geography)-- occurs in the dry land near sea level in the region of the equator. The periodic frequency of interferences by physical variables increases outwardly from the Earth’s center into the colder climates of mountain and toward the Earth poles… Sum totally on Earth the residual vanities and superstitions of the ego bulk up most obviously in the warm and mild climates, originally most favorable to the naked, ignorant man, and are most rapidly dispersed and replaced with intellectual ordering in the environments of highest frequency of unprecedented intensities of interference, penetrated now by man at will by virtue of his contriving, of realizations in complex principles.”
