According to the guy that wrote that book I linked to, it would be more like 500 years. I totally wish I could be around to see the world like that.

My husband just bought me this book: http://www.worldwithoutus.com/index2.html I wish I had time to read it! Perhaps after both ski season and this semester are over.

Ticks keep me employed. :mrgreen:

Holy moly! I can tell you right now exactly what my husband will be doing all evening. Wow. WOW!

Cool! Lucky you! :) They are such beautiful animals.

Sorry about Chicken, Largo. I was just thinking that a fox would not be so bold to go after a housecat, those things are pointy! Seriously, I would think that a fox would risk too much injury trying to kill a cat. I guess not!

Wow, will a fox prey on cats? I know coyotes commonly prey on them, but never considered that foxes will, too. That's pretty bold of them, cats are pretty formidable. You learn something new every day. Better keep my cats in. :(

Now I'm gonna have bad dreams.

Rabies can infect any mammal, even a mouse. It's not the biggest danger out there, but it's always something to keep in mind. I had a rabid groundhog in my driveway when I lived in Upper Freehold township back in the early 90s.

My husband Joe does Geek-squad type work, only he doesn't charge an arm and a leg and he gives actual customer service. :) If you need help, I can give you his number. Edit: I missed the last post here. Glad you worked it out. :)

Wouldn't the 2008 model be different than the 2005 model?

Ooh, nice shots! We have not taken the boats out in the winter, you are inspiring me. Thanks for sharing the photos. :)

Must be such a bummer to work all that time and have the tree fall the wrong way!

Sure. And microbes, too.

I always thought this was an interesting assertion. Every species has a purpose to benefit what? Us? It's all a matter of fitting into a niche. I wouldn't say every species has a purpose, but I would say that they're around because they've found a way to survive, grow and reproduce.

Yeah, they keep the pesticide companies afloat. :)

You should probably Frontline him if you don't already. There are some icky tick borne diseases that cats can get.

Or klansmen! Yeeks. Now THAT would be scary.
