Carolina at Chapel Hill Lines: 9 Laura, I recommend that you give up on this one. Anyone who does not have the rational ability needed to see that a creature with an attention span of less than a quarter of a minute cannot possibly make any sort of mental link between its immediate sexual activity and the giving of young a few weeks in the future is not about to be swayed by any amount of rational argument. My god, even some tribes of primitive humans have yet to make that connection! -- Tim Maroney, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill duke!unc!tim (USENET), tim.unc@csnet-relay (ARPA)
