Well, Bill, jokes aside it is an interestingly different model.

Just because the luminiferous ether was "disproved" by the Michaelson-Morley experiments (about which Einstein warned "we have not disproved the ether, only that we don't need it for computation") that doesn't mean that Žlan vital has been abandoned. A universal gradient index of life-force endowment for each bee, boar, dog, whale and barracuda!!!

That means every organism should have three scores: their endowment of life force, their brain ratio (to body mass) and the net combination they make of these two things, indicating how good they are at broad survival. This scoring system would put an end to species-ism and establish a global meritocracy across all species, and possibly revolutionize our notion of who is entitled to what civil rights!!!

V_i=B_i x EV_i

Voila!! The future is assured!
