DISCLAIMER: The following post may contain boredom, obvious literary insight, and dull language.

I notice that writing this blog, and many to follow, is not going to be nearly as interesting or entertaining as writing my first one and since I don't really feel like spending a lot of time on this post I am afraid that it will be quite mundane. My most sincere apologies go out to those of you who actually read this. The content of this post is, unfortunately, strictly guided by my professor, so I will, begrudgingly, follow those guidelines in order to protect my, sure to fall, grade.

So into the bright, well lit room, that is the Time Traveler's evolutionary theory of the Eloi and Morlock species. Yes, I know that the great and powerful Time Traveler himself thinks that his evolutionary theory is flawed, if not entirely wrong. I, however, because the specificity, and vagueness, of my guiding prompt, do not care whether or not he is right. I am merely concerned with what his theory is and what "characteristics support his hypothesis." The first question is simple enough to answer. His theory is that the Eloi are the descendants of the upper class and that the Morlocks are the descendants of the lower, working class. The second question is more difficult to answer. To answer it properly I must first ask at least one other question. Characteristics of what? Since this question will not be answered before I am forced to post this for everyone to read I think it is just a touch unfair that I have to answer it. I will, however, attempt to do so. I will also, because I am overly confident and arrogant, assume, correctly I'm sure, that the aforementioned characteristics are characteristics of the Eloi and Morlock. The characteristics that support his hypothesis are the ones that he chooses to call on when explain his hypothesis. The "characteristics" for the Morlocks are simple. They do all the labor. They have terrible posture, such as the working class in the late 1800s. The Eloi's characteristics are slightly more difficult, unless we assume that the Time Traveler shares Well's view that the upper class are childlike. If they share that view the supporting "characteristics" are easy to see. The Eloi are like children.

There we go, a Simple, Dull, Literary post. Be prepared for many, many, many, many more.
