wmperry(a)aventail.com (William M. Perry) writes: As the God of the Animals[1], I strongly protest against all forms of violence towards poor species whose only fault is to exist. Those bugs are not your enemy! They are *your friends*. They just want to play with you. They need love and affection. Let them jump on your keyboard, help you code some lisp. If you really have to use a shoe, it should be only to provide them a tiny bed, with a rolled sock in it so that they could rest under your protection, a peacefull night. If you're kind with them and they still bother you, tell me. I'll talk to them. I have spoken.
