ant_time sameolme My early studies of entomological relativity were based on the tiny size of ants.It followed that their time would be equally tiny. I calculated that an ant day should be about 5 minutes. To test my theory I followed an ant through its tiny day. I thought for sure that I would catch it stopping and going to sleep becauce it was its bedtime already. I didn't see it happen! Well, perhaps it sleeps such a tiny sleep that I missed it when I blinked. I became more disciplined in my observation, hardly blinking at all. Alas, all this rigorous effort made me sleepy ,I closed my eyes and took a nap. My older sister came and found me and brought me in the house. That day I proved conclusively that older sisters are the enemy of science. 040706 ... newme oh my gosh sameolme 040707 ... newme i've had similar thoughts. 040707 what's it to you? who go blather from
