@parados,
Quote:. Is it as much fun as when you affect to know what cows are thinking?
I had been careful not to be suspected of knowing what cows are thinking or of speculating what it might be. I offered a tentative explanation of the behaviour I have observed in cows for no other reason. It is you who affected to know the mind of cows. Not me.

I can show you where I grew up. I am no more than a mile away now from this end of the area. You really are scraping in the cracks at the bottom of the barrel with drivel of that nature. It suggests you don't believe anything any A2Ker says. Which makes it difficult to understand your presence unless you are being subjectively selective in who you believe.
This being a science thread such attitudes are ridiculous.
