here's a cool article on porpoises naming themselves and using the names to establish contact. Less and less of a line between us and them.

That link doesn't look good. Let me see if it works. Anyway, it was on CNN

I've heard that porpoises are the smartest animals on earth, and I know that chimps are pretty damn smart too. I think my dog is a lot smarter than I give him credit for being, but he certainly does a lot of dumb **** too.

Still, you hear stories about how dogs can smell cancer, etc. I know anytime I'm not feeling good, my dog doesn't leave my side.

birds are very intelligent, too. Our cockatoo named each of us--and not our real names. He calls me Rucka-Rucka.
