Yes, isn't it fascinating. They've recently done a study (could be this same one) where they had a contest between human college students and young monkeys. Put it this way~it wasn't the college students who won.  Can you imagine how intelligent those animals are if we could just learn to communicate with them better and send them to school?

CORRECTION to previous post
Correction, this was Wewoka Creek where it intersects STATE HWY 48, north of Holdenville.
P.S. I found some panties under the bridge there. But didn't want to give anyone the wrong ideas about Holdenville, OK. And NO they weren't mine! Probably synopsis turkey day road trip. That's how he got lost!!

I thought the "furballs" were "Tribbles"...
"Assimilate" was a Borg terminology...
Yeah, we're "Trekkies here... (Original version of course!) |

None of that was very technical...
Even the stuff in RB's new tech thread isn't very technical.
I haven't seen any GeekSpeak in this forum yet.
