As we all know? Considering you're the one ranting on evolution, haven't you
heard of the "evolution of altruism" and such? Prisoner's dilemmas are
analyzable by game theory and rational tools.
As an aside note, a better algorithm than the typical tit-for-tat has been
found a while ago, but you probably know about it already, although IMO the
new algorithm is against the spirit of the thing.
