I have to say that it just doesn't make sense that we should have evolved in
such a way that our infants should be intolerant of lactose. We are mammals,
we feed our young with species-specific milk - how much sense does it make
that they would not tolerate the naturally-occurring lactose? Seems like a
good recipe for extinction!

We're better-designed than that!
