    Ultimate Fruit-Fly Medium (NO, really... seriously)

    Essentially, nobody here can truly prove most of what they say unless put under TRUE scientific scrutiny in a laboratory unless the results are OVER-overwhelmingly obvious. Many of us have things that work. The old saying goes "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". If we were to all truly follow...

    Can mantids recognize faces?

    Now I know how people feel when I try to describe to them what I am doing when I'm creating a virtual server on the blade-farm in the datacenter at my company. The real question Phil, is... do you speak english? :P

    Can mantids recognize faces?

    Interesting post. It does spark the imagination. I'd like to know exactly how much these insects have going on in those tiny brains. How "smart" are they exactly? Seems like pure hard-wired instinct, nothing more. I hear fish have a 30-second short-term memory. But, who knows how much of...

    Appendectomy

    Been meaning to call you and check in on you. My life is utter chaos and this is the first time in a month that I have "regular" internet access, let alone the time to send emails/forums or even work on my mantids. I feel bad for them. I'm not giving them nearly as much attention as they...
