Re: The most fair and just static competition

The question doesn't make much sense for me. This is where life just isn't fair and that's that.

Thinking the thought to the end will lead it ad absurdum: You'll also have to take into account brain size (thinking uses oxygen, right?), age, BMI (fat uses less oxygen than muscle), eyesight (it's easier to drift off when You don't see sharp - or is it?), etc, etc, ... You get my point, I guess?

A big part of any sport is achieving things even though You might not have the ideal genetic predisposition. ( Anyone seen GATTACA? )

Is a runner less worthy of a prize because he has long legs?
