This frustratedly insecure or panicked animal survival drive is not a primary human behavior; it is only a secondary, subordinate, “fail-safe” behavior that occurs only when the very broad limits of physical tolerance are exceeded. When supplies are available, humans daily consume about two dry pounds of food as well as five pounds of water and seven pounds of oxygen, which their blood extracts from the 50 pounds of atmosphere that they inhale every day. Humans can go 30 days without food, seven days without water, but only two minutes without air. With 30 days’ tolerance, humans have plenty of time to decide how to cope with vital food problems; with a week’s waterless tolerance, they have to think and act with some expedition; with only one-and-a-half minutes’ oxygenless tolerance, they rarely have time to think and cope successfully. Because the substances that humans require the least can be gone without for 30 days, nature has for millions of years used humans’ hunger and the fertility potentials to force them to learn by trial and error how most competently to solve problems. But because the absence for more than a minute or so of oxygen (the substance humans use the most) could not be tolerated, nature provided the air everywhere around the world__in effect, “socialized” it.
