  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
It's really windy here today as well, probably around 35-40mph gusts. I'm just hoping we don't lose power because of it. For whatever reason the grid we are on here seems to experience power outages if you even look at it cross-eyed. So anytime it's windy like this I always hold my breath and pray to the power Gods :)
 
Anyone ever read John Calhoun's "rat utopia experiment no.25 " it's an experiment that I think all people should learn about.

Hello; A bit hard to describe in brief. Essentially a series of experiments with rats and mice with disturbing implications about overpopulation and it's consequences.

Sounds like it has some relevance to what we are experiencing in todays world. I'll have to check it out

Hello; I used some of the results as part of my biology lessons back when I was teaching. Yes there does seem to be heavy implications about human overpopulations. I guess many are not comfortable applying the mice/rat experiment results to human populations, but they got my attention in that sense.

Disturbingly relevant, you can see certain parallels in today's society, even though it was done some decades ago.

It would seem the societies of both mice and humans can have very similar problems
